New Mexico Junior College

Welcome to 火博体育官网's Assessment of Student Learning information page

 

 火博体育官网's approach to assessment of student learning is based on its mission -Success through Learning.

Assessment of student learning delivers evidence of value in courses, programs of study and degrees earned. It also helps identify opportunities for improvement. We use assessment to track progression of learning from specific areas of study through broad, widely applicable learning goals. "Success through learning" is measured in how well students communicate, critically think and problem solve, and interact within their communities as they pursue education and career goals with 火博体育官网 and beyond.
