Doing the Work: How Institutions are Using VALUE Rubrics to Understand Student Learning
September 16, 2026
–
Implementing VALUE looks different at every institution, but the goal is the same: generating meaningful evidence of student learning that can inform teaching, learning, and future action. In this webinar, a panel of practitioners will share how they've implemented AAC&U's VALUE rubrics within their own institutional contexts.
You'll learn about the decisions they made, the structures they built, the challenges they encountered, and how their approaches have evolved over time.
Whether you're launching a new assessment initiative or strengthening an existing one, you'll gain ideas and insights you can adapt to your own campus.
