Nevada State’s Essential Learning Outcomes
In September 2021, Provost Vickie Shields approved the recommendation of the Core Curriculum Revision Committee to adopt twelve Essential Learning Outcomes (ELOs). Each course in our Core Curriculum will support at least two of these outcomes. Adding these ELOs is part of our current Core Curriculum revision.

Each of the Essential Learning Outcomes (ELOs) is guided by a detailed rubric, created by NS faculty. For faculty who are proposing courses, use these rubrics to align your course and the appropriate ELOs. (Last updated: Fall 2021)
