Policies and Procedures (PDF)
Announcing the adoption of a new Intersegmental
General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) Standards, Policies and Procedures

extensive efforts by representatives of the three public segments of higher
education to provide greater clarity to our colleges and students on IGETC
Certification. It has been reviewed and endorsed by the faculty senates in
each of the three segments and by the Intersegmental Council of Academic Senates
(ICAS). Click here to

Senate Curriculum Institute
New! We
are making available select
presentations from our most recent event dedicated to a large
variety of curriculum related issues. The Curriculum Institute is
intended for faculty, particularly curriculum chairs and chief instructional
officers, involved in new program development, program revision,
or technology curriculum development. Faculty attending the Institute
will learn good curriculum committee practices; write integrated
course outlines; receive special assistance from curriculum specialists,
and learn other useful skills involved in developing curriculum
at the community colleges.
IMPAC
Project
The Intersegmental Major Preparation Articulated Curriculum (IMPAC)
project is a unique intersegmental, faculty-designed and faculty-run
project to ensure that students transferring from the community
colleges to UC and CSU are prepared for work in their chosen major
and can avoid having to repeat coursework.
Regional
Curriculum Colloquia and Delegated Curriculum Approval Authority
The Curriculum Standards Handbook delegates certain curriculum approval
authorities to local colleges and calls for colleges to meet regionally
to share curriculum strategies and to evaluate the effectiveness
of the college in meeting the delegation criteria. This paper presents
a format and mechanism for accomplishing these regional colloquia.
