Institutional Learning Outcomes

Institutional Student Learning Outcomes (ILOs) broadly describe the knowledge or skills students achieve who meet their own educational goals at City College. These outcomes reflect the institutional mission and values of our college. ILOs represent very broad modes of learning that can be experienced through many paths.

ILOs are created by members of the Academic Senate SLO Committee and Participatory Governance Assessment Planning Team in consultation with the entire CCSF Community. They are approved by the Academic Senate Executive Council and reviewed by the Participatory Governance Council and Board of Trustees. They appear in the college catalog.
