Departments must approve credit courses to be offered through the Division of Academic Outreach and Extended Programs, as well as the course syllabus and the instructor. Departments determine whether courses can be taught as extended-study offerings without jeopardizing or reducing academic standards.
Courses for degree credit taken by extended study should undergo the same review process as courses taken on campus. Departmental curriculum committees are to evaluate a proposed extended-study course as it relates to content, lessons, exams, and textbook. Departments are to examine extended-study courses for currency and quality on an annual basis and recommend any courses to be discontinued or changed.
For courses to be offered electronically, see also Guidelines for Course Proposals: Online and Compressed Video Formats and Appendix A, UCA Principles for Electronically Offered Courses. For required license forms, use this link: Policy 409 Forms.
