Over the last two years, Foothill College has developed a 21^st Century Learning Outcomes Plan to ensure that an appropriate mix of knowledge, skills and abilities (KSA) competencies are taught in approved degree, certificate and transfer programs.

Lead by President Bernadine Chuck Fong and comprised of faculty and staff from the 21^st Century Learning Outcomes Steering Committee, College Curriculum Committee and the General Education Review Committee, the team has, to date, identified four competencies and the KSAs that students must possess to earn an AA degree.

More to come: curriculum standards; documenting course completion; workforce development standards.
