The Council on Accreditation of Educational Programs (CAEP) and the Georgia Professional Standards Commission (GaPSC) require all degree programs to measure and report student learning outcomes. The School of Education at Clark Atlanta University has established a Quality Assurance System that includes six key assessments in the initial programs and four key assessments in the advanced programs. Results are reported annually in IMPROVE, which is the assessment management system used by the university. In addition, feedback on the programs is collected regularly from cooperating teachers, site supervisors, graduating students, alumni, employers, SOE Advisory Board members and other P-12 partners.
