<p><span style="color:black"> </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">I wanted to bring you “up to speed” on the collective work and significant progress that has been made streamlining the curriculum approval process. At the Board of Governor’s (BOG) meeting on January 17, 2017, your colleague, Virginia
Guleff, was joined by her 5C Co-Chair Dolores Davison (ASCCC Executive Board member), along with CEO Doug Houston (Yuba CCD), CCCCO Vice Chancellor Van Ton-Quinlivan, and myself to inform the BOG of the changes made to the curriculum approval processes thus
far, so that our colleges can be more responsive to curricular needs without sacrificing quality in those courses and programs.
</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black"> </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">In addition, Dean Jackie Escajeda and I updated Consultation Council regarding the participatory group’s curriculum streamlining efforts along with Mary Kay Rudolf, CIO Representative, and Julie Bruno, ASCCC President. The collective
streamlining efforts to move forward were endorsed with much appreciation.</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black"> </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">An important step in these efforts is the Credit Course Certification Form you have signed verifying that your college supports and has completed all requirements for the CCCCO to process credit courses from your college automatically.
However, implementing this new process is not without challenges. This will not become automatic until the new Chancellor’s Office Curriculum Inventory (COCI) system is in place (late spring 2017). All curriculum proposals must still be manually processed
to receive a control number until then. In addition, several credit courses are in the infamous queue that were submitted prior to the development, distribution, and collection of the Credit Course Certification forms. Also, public safety courses and cooperative
work experience have unique requirements—some of which need to be clarified in regulations or through communication to the field—which warrants the need for continued review for now.
</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black"> </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">To address these challenges, the Chancellor’s Office will proceed as follows:</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:49.5pt;text-indent:-.25in"><span style="font-family:Wingdings;color:black">§</span><span style="font-size:7.0pt;color:black">
</span><span style="color:black">All credit course proposals submitted on or after January 1, 2017, will be moved to the control number stage without review by the Chancellor’s Office, provided your college has submitted the certification form.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
