Abstrakt: The article describes two new methods added to the Baccalaureate Educational Assessment Package (BEAP) instrument set to directly assess students' competencies as detailed in the Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EPAS) accreditation document by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE). The accreditation document is segmented into four parts: Program Mission and Goals, Explicit Curriculum, Implicit Curriculum, and Assessment, each of which are addressed by the article. The Foundation Curriculum Assessment Instrument (FCAI) is a test of 64 multiple-choice questions that measure how well a program's curriculum prepared students for practice. The Field/Practicum Placement Assessment Instrument (FPPAI) measures field education competencies with 55 items scored on a 9-point Likert scale.
