Through the Alverno College Institute for Educational Outreach, Alverno faculty and staff work with educators from all levels, K-12 through professional schools. They draw on more than 30 years experience in designing and refining an ability-based curriculum. They share their theory and practice of performance-based assessment of student learning as well as their approach to program and institutional assessment of learning outcomes.

Workshops
As a vehicle for work with educational colleagues, the Alverno College Institute for Educational Outreach offers one day seminars each semester and three-day and weeklong summer workshops on assessment.
All workshops offer participants the experience of a dynamic, innovative, and hospitable institutional learning culture. Participants also interact and collaborate with educators from around the world. View previous workshop participants.

Education Consultation Services
Drawing on more than 30 years of shared experience in curriculum development and institutional transformation, Alverno faculty and staff work with educational institutions, nationally and internationally, to help transform their theory and practice of teaching, learning and assessment and revise their organization structures.

If you are interested in having Alverno consult with your institution, we will work with you to conduct custom-designed presentations based on your specific needs. Alverno faculty will help you to examine internal and external motivators for curriculum change and will address what goes on within and outside of the classroom.

Starting from your current philosophy of teaching and learning, Alverno's knowledgeable faculty and staff will work with you and your team to develop student outcomes. They will also help to identify and clarify best practices so that you can build on them as you refine shared outcomes.
