Recording Outcomes Office Hours April 1, 2026

Today our conversation focused on upcoming events and requirements for access to an Outcomes site. There are steps that a campus must complete before gaining access to an Outcomes site. These requirements are detailed in the Institutional Readiness guide below. An institution needs to:

• Review your Institutional Hierarchy. If there are any questions there is an Study Hall on IH in the Community.
• Review Terms and Term types
• Create the Performance Results Scale and define categories
• Agree on the Bloom’s Taxonomy that will be used
• Identify what is included in the Outcomes template, the Assessment template, and the Results template
