All Council on Social Work Education programs measure and report student learning outcomes. Students are assessed on their mastery of the competencies that comprise the accreditation standards of the Council on Social Work Education. These competencies are dimensions of social work practice that all social workers are expected to master during their professional training. A measurement benchmark is set by the social work programs for each competency. An assessment score at or above that benchmark is considered by the program to represent mastery of that particular competency.

Portfolio Measures: 2012 – N=36 Students (graduating seniors) 2014 – N=31 Students (graduating seniors) For the Field Evaluation measure, the benchmark competency is 70%, since students need to achieve at least a C in order to pass field. We also have set a MSW competency level, since a B or above is expected of students who are planning to enter an MSW Program. This is referred to below as (BSW) and (MSW).
