Abstract
Background: Determining meaningful faculty and student program outcomes is important for demonstrating nursing program quality. For many faculty who are not experienced in program development and evaluation, outcomes specification can be a daunting task.
Method: This article draws on established measurement principles and accreditation standards found in the literature, focusing on the topic of faculty and program outcome specification and measurement.
Results: Important principles of outcome determination and measurement, and how to effectively present the data to demonstrate outcome achievement are presesnted.
Conclusion: Practical examples of what to do, and what not to do, are provided to illustrate these specification and measurement principles. [J Nurs Educ. 2025;64(5):299-302.].
