Accreditation and Educational Outcomes<\/h4>\n

The program faculty members have formulated a competency-based curriculum which includes the five elements of the educational policies and accreditation standards and which are conceptually linked to one another (CSWE, 2022). This plan involves using a curriculum design that begins with the outcomes, expressed as the expected competencies, programs develop the substantive content, pedagogical approach, and educational activities that provide learning opportunities for students to demonstrate the competencies. Per CSWE requirements, program assessment data is collected annually and is displayed on this website.<\/span><\/p>\n
