Our final webinar in the series takes an overall look at Standard 5 (Assurance of Learning). In this we talk about the changes in language within the new standards, and the importance of taking time to really define the learning competencies for each programme. Key areas include:
- 2013 vs 2020: What stays the same? What has changed?
- Table 5.1 (“new” Assurance of Learning table)
- Microlearning Credentials: what do I need to know?
- Non-degree Executive Education: what’s required?
- Latest insights into the moves by AACSB to allow leverage of work done for National/Regional Regulatory bodies.
