Program Development

Type: NASBA
Last Updated: April 9, 2024

At CPE Today, we are dedicated to ensuring our program content and knowledge level align with our intended participants’ backgrounds and development needs.

Relevant Learning Objectives and Outcomes: All our learning activities are based on relevant learning objectives and outcomes that clearly articulate the professional competence that participants should achieve. This ensures that our participants can decide whether a program aligns with their professional development needs.

Program Knowledge Level: Each course is categorized into one of the following knowledge levels: basic, intermediate, advanced, overview, and update. This information is clearly stated in our course descriptions to guide participants in choosing a program that suits their expertise and learning objectives.

Prerequisite Education and Experience: For intermediate, advanced, and updated courses, we identify any prerequisite education, experience, or advanced preparation in precise language. This allows potential participants to readily ascertain whether they qualify for a program.

For courses with a “basic” or “overview” knowledge level, we state any prerequisite education or experience and advanced preparation, if any. We explicitly state “none” in the course announcement or descriptive materials if no prerequisites or advance preparation are required.

Consistency with Participant Background: We aim to develop and execute learning activities consistent with the participants’ prerequisite education, experience, and advanced preparation. This ensures that the program content and level equate with the backgrounds of our intended participants.
