What can students do at CC? Certificates

Little to no General Education required 12-17 Units = skill certificate 18+ units = Achievement Certificate

Associate of Science Degree (AS) Often 18+ units of major coursework +/- 20 units of General Education

Associate of Science for Transfer (AS-T) Units for major courses varies 37-40 units of General Education

CSU, UC, IGETC

AA-T/AS-T or AA/AS…WHAT? SB1440 – www.sb1440.org

guaranteed admission to a CSU campus for AA-T/AS-T completors.

Limited to 60 units at CC & 60 units at CSU. Students are admitted with junior standing AB 2302 requires that the California Community Colleges

work collaboratively with the CSU to inform students and the general public about this new opportunity and encourages the University of California to examine what it would take to join in this new transfer reform effort.

Local Degrees that are compliant to the SB1440 are labeled AA-T or AS-T, to indicate that they are “transfer” degrees.

Dawn of a new era. . . SB 1440

Goal: increase CCC transfers with associate degreesIncrease number of associate degrees awardedReduce units/cost before & after transferSmoother path to transfer to a CSU A guarantee at CSU

What is C-ID? Faculty-driven system Assigns numbers to transfer courses

Each C-ID number identifies a lower-division, transferable course commonly articulated between the CCC and CSU/UC

C-ID number ties a course to a specific course “descriptor” that was developed by intersegmental discipline faculty and reviewed statewide.

C-ID descriptor also provides information for ongoing curriculum development and revision of lower division courses.

Individual college courses are compared to the minimum requirements set by these descriptors. Any community college course that bears the C-ID supranumber conveys that faculty have determined it meets the published course content, rigor, and student learning outcomes.

Any other course elsewhere, bearing the same number will be accepted by the institution.

346 approved descriptors and 28 draft descriptors (c-id.net)
