Title 5 §55002 Spells out standards and criteria for courses Specifies what must be in the COR. Colleges may include additional information on Course Outlines. No standard format for COR.
3
Faculty “Own” Curriculum Part of AB 1725 Board “relies primarily” on faculty
4
Curricunet - tool, not process Helps us build courses and programs Provides background information to support COR and state approvals Customized for each college
5
B.C. – Before Curricunet Course Outlines developed, submitted to CRC for approval “Soft copies” submitted for Tech Review starting around 2000. Supporting Information minimal Typically required for new courses and programs Submitted to Office of Instruction for State application for approval
6
Curricunet Red entries = “Active” course Should have complete background screens. Search for Courses No date of revision – active course not revised since Curricunet implementation
7
Curricunet Green entries = Soft Copy CORs uploaded and never completed. Missing background screens with supporting data. Search for Courses
8
Curricunet Black entries = Revision “in the works” Status can be either: Draft (not yet launched) Pending (launched, but not CRC approved yet) Locked (CRC approved and on the way to the Board). Search for Courses
9
Icons “Pencil View” = Edit
10
Revising a Course Start with the copy icon Only one “working copy” at a time! Co-contributors vs. Originators All course proposals should list dept. chairs as full co- contributors

You’ve Built your Course – Now What?

Tools to Help PCAH Minimum Quals ASSIST TOP codes... And much, much more!
26
Program Approval Process Starts with the Senate “proof of concept” Moves through Curricunet development Returns to the Senate final approval Then moves forward to Board
27
State Approval Process New or “substantially changed” programs require State approval CCC-501 or CCC-510 Documentation required to support need for new programs
28
What’s “Substantial”? Goals of program are significantly changed. Job categories qualified for are significantly different than in the past. BA/BS transferred to is significantly different than in past. New award added to existing program (i.e., adding a certificate to a degree program) Splitting an existing program into two or more tracks in the same TOP code.
