Course & Program Integration


The Inbound-Outbound Approach

Schools can choose how often and when they will assess their students. Some higher education intuitions only test at the end of the program. In contrast, others will assess three times throughout the program. The most common practice is an Inbound-Outbound Approach. The Inbound-Outbound Approach is equivalent to a pre/post-test approach to assessment.

In this approach, students complete an inbound exam early in the program and then an outbound exam toward the end of the program. The comparison of inbound and outbound exam scores is the direct measure of learning. A detailed analysis of the exam results is used for evaluating learning outcomes.
The assessment solution is typically included within a course. The inbound exam is included as a course activity early in the academic program. Completion of the outbound exam is one of the last course activities before program completion.

The difference in Inbound and Outbound exam scores, both cumulatively and individually, is your direct measure of learning and the academic institution’s value. Program-level and course-level learning outcomes are evaluated, analyzed, and assessed using the detailed reporting provided with the service.


Learning Management System Integration

You can easily and readily integrate our assessment into any academic program and most learning management systems.

(LMS) with flexible purchase options.

Options for delivery of the exam to the students:

+ A school-specific microsite for student self-registration and password protection.

+ Technical integration with the LMS for automated registrations and grade book postings. We can integrate with commonly used LMS platforms.

Validity & Reliability

We place a high priority on ensuring the validity and reliability of the assessment services. These practices begin at the design stage, continue through beta-testing, and have ongoing, regularly scheduled quality reviews. Download a full peer-reviewed journal article below.
