ABET / TAC
|
|
ABET (the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology) has developed a
set of learning outcomes used to guide faculty in assessing the effectiveness
of academic programs. CPT is using ABET's Technology Accreditation Commission's
(TAC) criteria to help us assess student learning in our courses. The ABET/TAC
learning objectives listed for each course will help students understand what
general skills and knowledge they are expected to have demonstrated upon
completion of the course.
