Directions for completing Form AS 4
Indicate the benchmark percentage for each competency. The competency benchmark is the percent of students the program expects to have achieved both/all outcome measure benchmarks. Programs calculate the percentage of students achieving each outcome measure benchmark, then calculate the percentage of students achieving each competency inclusive of two or more measures for each program option. Programs with multiple program options must present data for each program option, and in aggregate inclusive of all program options per competency. Programs may add/delete columns to accurately reflect the number of program options offered. This is a required form. The assessment data table may be altered to accurately reflect the number of program options offered and additional program-developed competencies program. However, beyond these formatting alternations, the program may not alter the content of this form.

Assessment Data (Academic Year 2024-25)
Assessment of Student Learning Outcomes
The program assesses student achievement of the nine social work competencies using
multiple measures, including the SWEAP Curriculum Instrument (FCAI) and the SWEAP
Field Evaluation (FPPAI).
Students are considered to have achieved competency when they meet established criteria
on each instrument. Results from both instruments are combined to determine overall
competency attainment.
