Highest priority for course offerings shall be given to credit and noncredit courses that advance students’ academic progress in the areas of basic skills, ESL, CTE, degree and certificate attainment, and transfer, in the context of labor market and economic development needs of the community.

Description

Colleges will review course offerings to ensure that courses supported with state apportionment funding advance student education plans, consistent with the priorities expressed in this recommendation. If necessary, statute and Title 5 regulations will be amended to specify that courses that do not support student educational plans may not be claimed for apportionment funding.
