Few examples of demonstrable program learning improvement projects exist. To provide guidance for those seeking to report program learning improvement, we offer a real example of an implemented learning improvement project for a Computer Information Systems major curriculum. The example follows a six-criteria model and the subsequent standards for assessment outlined in the literature. The six-criteria model includes faculty involvement, readiness for improvement, baseline data, investigating existing curriculum and diagnosing issues, learning intervention, and reassessment. The learning improvement report is written by the faculty in the program. The report is then reviewed and assessed by the university's office of assessment, who provides critical feedback using an assessment rubric. The example learning improvement program provides sample critical traits, curriculum maps, and content tables for before and after the implementation of the intervention, and the modifications made to each course in the curriculum to improve learning.
