Learning outcomes don't stop at the edge of a single course. But assessing learning across programs can be challenging when your institution's existing structure doesn't align with your assessment needs.
Academic Programs in Blackboard Outcomes offer a more flexible approach. You can group courses into programs without changing your institutional hierarchy, creating opportunities for cross-program assessment and reporting.
