l Create check list of steps to follow once policy or revised policy is approved (faculty handbook, Ed policy web page, student handbook)
l Review signature blocks on form for shared governance

l Review handout package on ‘Credit-by-Examination’ policy.
l Does Skyline’s policy follow Title 5 regulations? Yes, but our catalog is unclear and its interpretation can be varied. Consequently, many students do not understand the process.
l Evelyn will bring the following concerns and suggestions to the next Academic Senate meeting for consideration.

i.  Rewrite text (description) for the catalog that clearly reflects Skyline’s process. Make certain that the process follows Title 5 regulations. Include clarification for these terminologies

1. Credit by Examination
2. Advanced Placement
3. CLEP Examination
4. Challenge of Prerequisites and Corequisites
5. Credit by Certification and/or license

ii. Review the grading policy for credit by exam. Currently it is credit/no credit.       

iii. Note that ‘credit/no credit’ does not transfer to the 4-year universities.

iv. Make the information more accessible to students.

v. Review the fees structure and the number of ‘challenges’ to justify the administrative cost.
