The National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment (NILOA) is in process of a website redesign and logo development and we would like to invite you to take part! We invite all students, faculty, staff, and others to let your creativity flow and submit original ideas for a new NILOA logo! We would love to give those who frequent our website, make use of our resources, and inform our work the opportunity to have a voice in creating a logo to represent NILOA.

NILOA was established in 2008 with the mission to discover and disseminate ways that academic programs and institutions can productively use assessment data internally to inform and strengthen undergraduate education, and externally to communicate with policy makers, families and other stakeholders. NILOA assists institutions and others in discovering and adopting promising practices in the assessment of college student learning outcomes. Documenting what students learn, know and can do is of growing interest to colleges and universities, accrediting groups, higher education associations, foundations and others beyond campus, including students, their families, employers, and policy makers.

While we would like you to be as creative as possible, we encourage you to draw inspiration from your experiences with NILOA's mission, materials, and staff. The deadline to submit an original piece to niloa@education.illinois.edu is August 24, 2018. We look forward to seeing your ideas!
