The ABDC is sponsoring a project to develop learning outcomes for providers of Bachelors and Masters by coursework degrees, focused on marketing.  The purpose of this project is to develop consensus across the marketing higher education community on threshold learning outcomes for marketing bachelor and coursework master degrees. This is in preparation for addressing the Teaching and Learning Standards, one of the five standards domains under the new national regulator, the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA). Marketing is the second discipline for which specific threshold learning outcomes will be developed, the first being accounting.

This project relies heavily on consultation with the marketing community. It will start with input on current practices, by higher education providers. The working party will consolidate this input and prepare a draft of a document for further discussion. Feedback for this document will be solicited from members of professional associations, employers, and peak bodies as well as from public and private providers of marketing higher education.  We encourage all members of the marketing community to become involved in this project.  To be involved in this project please sign up at the Marketing Learning Outcomes website
