At the Teaching Institution, this team will:

Create a Course Offering Plan, determining which courses they will share with other institutions, and initiate articulation agreements for those courses.
-
Develop course outcomes, establishing course levels and credits.
-
Assign faculty, according to institutional policies.

The Academic Team will also assist with evaluating effectiveness in achieving course outcomes and sharing the evidence with enrolling institutions when requested.

Each institution determines whether a course from another institution will meet its course requirements. The registrar’s office is a good place to begin to determine if a course meets institutional requirements. If the course has never been accepted for transfer, it could go through the same committee system it would go through for transfer.
Information such as the course title and level, instructor’s name and contact information, prerequisites, and available seats can be found for each course listing in the Course Information Guide, included in the WICHE ICE Operations Manual.
