Principals: Concurrent Enrollment Aint What it Used to Be…
All
UVU CE courses
must be CTE, General Education, Prerequisite for a Major or GE, or Major requirement.
All
UVU CE courses
are reviewed annually by the CE department as well as the corresponding department on campus. Course content and assessment must match or be equal to what is delivered on campus.
All
CE courses
are reviewed by local districts as well as by the Utah State Office of Education every year.
All
CE instructors
are considered adjunct faculty and must have the same credentials as those teaching on campus. All CE instructors must receive department-specific training, department visits, professional development, and CE training each year in order to be compliant.
All CE students apply and are registered as UVU students. They must meet the same prerequisites, must do the same work, and will generate an official transcript.WHY Concurrent Enrollment?
It can benefit families, schools, and communities!Slide25
