Learning and Program Outcomes
Learning Outcomes (SLOs): results in terms of knowledge, skills, attitudes, and habits of mind that result from the experience. LOs describe what
students or unit contacts will do (what the department or office (unit) intends for students and/or those who contact it to know (cognitive), think
(affective, attitudinal), or do (behavioral, performance, psychomotor) when they have completed a given educational program or interaction with
an administrative unit). LOs address and are parts of an academic program’s assessment plan or a non-academic unit’s educational goal(s).
Instructional units may stipulate “See Form 201B”.
Program Outcomes (POs): the results you want to see in your unit’s programs and services. These outcomes state what a unit’s effectiveness
would be in terms of its programming (including usage, enrollment, completion) other than learning.

ranking, taking into account your analyses of areas of potential sustainable advantage and long term demand. Place the projected
budget dollar amounts needed.
 Academic Excellence, Teaching and Research
 Community Service and Engagement
 Cost Efficiencies and Diverse Revenue Streams
 Enrollment, Retention and Graduation
 Strengthened Infrastructure
 Shared Accountability and Image

Budget Implications of Priorities
For each priority above, indicate if you will utilize existing resources or internally re-allocated resources to address the priority.
Requests for new or capital funding should be vetted with your unit’s dean/area vice president. Indicate with a letter if the priority
entails a new funding request (N), capital request (C) or budget timeline that extends past the current fiscal year (F).

Proposed Budget Allocation FY2016
List your preferred allocation of your department’s budget based on your desire to fund your stated priorities. If you are basing
your reallocation of funds on securing external, non-appropriated funds, these funds should be awarded to the University and
allocated to your department already. If you are requesting a reallocation, specify the funds/categories and amounts for the
reallocation.

For your FY14-15 plan, the university priorities are Goals 4 and 6 of the Strategic
Plan. Each unit indicated MUST develop a program outcome related to the
following, if it has not already done so:
 Communications and Compliance: stipulate a program outcome related to
communications within your unit and between your unit and its
college/division structure. [For BOTH instructional and non-instructional
units.]
 Enrollment Planning: stipulate an outcome for your unit’s enrollment,
retention, and graduation planning. Instructional units may stipulate “See
ERG Planning Document”. [For instructional units and units in the Division
of Enrollment Management only.]

In addition, units that develop communications/compliance and enrollment
planning goals must include them in the Establishing Priorities section in the
template.
