Title

Implementation Of Assurance Of Learning Plans: An Accounting Program And Individual Course Analysis

Keywords

AACSB; accounting; accreditation; assurance of learning

Abstract

The authors surveyed faculty at AACSB-accredited schools regarding the learning goals and measures for their accounting programs as well as course objectives for the introductory tax course. They found over 50% of respondents were still developing their learning goals and measures and only 18% of respondents had completed 2 or more rounds of assessment. Whereas most accounting program goals are assessed with direct measures, accreditation program goals typically represent a small subset of the goals specified by professional bodies such as the AICPA. Assessment results have led to numerous changes in accounting programs and courses.
