Academic Learning Compacts
Academic Learning Compacts (ALCs) were meant to account for student achievement in baccalaureate degree programs in the Florida State University System. The purpose of ALCs was to establish policy guidelines and procedures for universities, through their bonds of trustees, to develop and implement Academic Learning Compacts to account for student achievement in baccalaureate degree programs in the State University System.
Each Compact includes statements of the core student learning outcomes in the areas of content/ discipline knowledge and skills, communication skills, and critical thinking skills that program graduates will have adequately demonstrated prior to being awarded the baccalaureate degree. ALCs answer three basic questions: What will students learn by the end of their academic programs? Have they learned what they have been taught by their professors? How do we measure these quantities?
Academic Learning Compacts were abolished by the Board of Governors in 2023.
