You will note below that one of the selections is the Academic Learning Compact (ALC). The ALC is designed to help us determine if students are meeting our program objectives. In addition to course grades, our college assesses student learning outcomes through the use of a capstone exam. This multiple choice exam includes questions about key health science concepts and is administered during spring term of the senior year. Questions are similar to questions students have encountered throughout their program. If you have any questions about the ALC, please do not hesitate to contact us.
