Learning outcomes are an important part of the review process and are mandatory for all proposals. If the proposal is accepted for presentation, they are published in the program. Learning outcomes describe what participants will be able to do after attending the session and must be stated as observable behaviors.
Learning outcomes provide a foundation for developing the course's format, content, and assessment tool. They also inform the participant what they are expected to do as a result of the learning event and assist potential participants in determining if the course is appropriate for their level of knowledge and skills. Presenters should reference "Keys to writing and using learning outcomes" when developing their learner outcomes. Additionally, presenters should utilize the action verbs detailed in the Learner Outcome Guidelines when structuring and writing learner outcomes.
Learning outcomes that indicate that an attendee will learn, understand, or know something are not measurable and are not eligible for ASHA CEUs and thus, cannot be accepted for presentation at the SHAA Convention.
