Examples of Teaching/Learning Assignments, Projects, Methods
- Relevant course content is developed as a result of faculty working with the Coalition of Human Service Educators who advocate for Associate Degree Social Service providers and serve as an information hub.
- Faculty collaborate with university representative to establish sound articulation agreements and students are expected to meet the standards required for them to successfully transfer to a university.

Evidence of Learning Outcome Achievement
- Students consistently receive high ratings on their practicum evaluations and are frequently hired while doing their practicum.
- Agencies that hire our students comment on how well they document in the clinical files, meeting standards set forth by the Ohio Department of Mental Health. This is essential to the employing agency because reimbursement of service is contingent upon providing well written documentation.
- On the survey of 2008 Social Services graduates, which is completed six months after program completion, 70% of those responding indicated they were in school continuing their education to obtain a bachelor’s degree in Social Work.
- The benchmarks for the writing and speaking general education outcomes, which is that 80% of the students will obtain a score of 4 or better on a scale of 1-5 on the writing and speaking rubric, are consistently met.
