. One main part of the accreditationprocess concerns the student outcomes. It all starts with ETAC/ABET student learning criteria.An Engineering Technology program must use these learning criteria to develop its own studentoutcomes. It must document student outcomes that will serve as a reference in judging how thestudents attain the program educational objectives. A documented and effective process for theperiodic review and revision of student outcomes must be available. One challenge is how topresent the student outcomes in the self-study report. Each student outcome has to be assessedvia a well-developed rubric. Another challenge is to how to summarize all statistics from alldifferent rubrics and report it in a well-written
