Master Course Approval Process
Central Texas College Distance Education
-
After a master course has been developed and has gone through the four-step QA process, the
appropriate Department Chair is sent a Department Chair Course Approval Statement via Etrieve.
NOTE: The course development/revision process, QA, and Department Chair approval must be completed at
least 30 days prior to course start date to allow for course copying and faculty review.
-
The Department Chair has two weeks (ten business days) to either complete and submit to DEET the
-
Department Chair Course Approval Statement
OR
-
Department Chair Master Course Evaluation form that clearly details needed improvements.
-
If neither form is submitted within the deadline, DEET will send a reminder to the Department Chair and copy the Dean of Instruction.
The Dean of Instruction will communicate with the Department Chair to identify issues and concerns and reach a resolution and set a new deadline.
-
If the Department Chair Master Course Evaluation form is submitted, improvements will be made through collaboration between
DEET staff and the Content Reviewer.
-
Steps 2-4 will be repeated until the Department Chair Course Approval Statement is received.
-
Failure to reach agreement will result in a meeting that includes the Dean of Instruction, the Dean of Educational Technology,
the Department Chair, and any other appropriate supervisor.
-
When the Department Chair Course Approval Statement is submitted, the master course will be used for copying.
