Data Requirements

Institutions will be required to establish an Institutional Hierarchy and curricular structure to utilize Outcomes for Blackboard. This foundation creates a clear, connected framework for measuring and aligning student learning—starting at the course level and extending across programs and the institution. By organizing learning in a way that reflects how learning occurs, institutions can assess progress, track outcomes over time through longitudinal reporting, and use consistent, meaningful data to support continuous improvement, accreditation, and informed decision-making.
