As an accredited AACSB school, the CSB uses continuous surveys, class assessments and other tools to ensure continuous improvement in learning.

Assurance of Learning (AOL) Standards

The AACSB defines these standards in the following way:

"Student learning is the central activity of higher education.

Definition of learning expectations and assurance that graduates achieve learning expectations are key features of any academic program. The learning expectations derive from a balance of internal and external contributions to the definition of educational goals.

Members of the business community, students, and faculty members each contribute valuable perspectives on the needs of graduates. Learning goals should be set and revised at a level that encourages continuous improvement in educational programs."
