AHELO's results

The objective of the Assessment of Higher Education Learning Outcomes Aquest (AHELO), initiative, which has the support of the OECD Education Ministers, is to assess the feasibility of an external assessment of learning outcomes, or generic skills and discipline-specific skills, that university students should be acquiring. The first stage of the work has focused on two selected disciplines, Economics and Engineering.

The purpose of the feasibility study is to see whether it is practically and scientifically feasible to assess what students in higher education know and can do upon graduation within and across these diverse contexts. The feasibility study should demonstrate what is feasible and what could be feasible, what has worked well and what has not, as well as provide lessons and stimulate reflection on how learning outcomes might be most effectively measured in the future.

The outcomes of the feasibility study will be presented in the following ways:
