Course Review
Cycle UpdatesMark A. Cortez, Director for Articulation and Transfer Policy
What’s New: CCP and OGTP
Increasing the need for this work
Effective – Summer Term 2018, first 15 hours must be from an
“allowable course”
Allowable courses include (1) "Transferable course" means
any course that is an approved Ohio transfer module (OTM),
transfer assurance guide (TAG), or career-technical
assurance guide (CTAG) course, or a course at a private
institution of higher education that is equivalent to such a
course based on the private institution's representation of
the course.
*While there are more details about allowable courses still
yet to come, for the work that we have an impact on we’re
focused on OTM, TAG, and CTAG courses.
Ohio Guaranteed Transfer Pathways
FY19 Review Cycle: Planned Change
Two Cycles of Formal Review
Encouragement to push to panel as soon as lead receives; one week
later ODHE can push for you.
Rolling Cycle that Encompasses Two Official Cycles:
Allows you to gauge work coming for Spring and establish a plan
as a panel to address volume if you see increased workloads.
Avoids peak exam/final schedules that provided some conflicts in
FY18 (earlier review in FY19).
Reduces administrative challenges.

Rolling Cycle
FY19 Review Cycle: Rolling Cycle
Rolling Cycle: Panels will receive submissions as they are submitted to
ODHE between October 8th and March 1st.
These will be limited and based on areas of high priority, i.e. those with
deadlines or requirements for the Ohio Guaranteed Transfer Pathways,
expirations, etc). These will be reviewed and returned as the panel
finishes the review, on a rolling basis.
EARLY submission during the rolling cycle is encouraged.
New submissions, resubmissions (corrections to be pending and
disapproved submissions) will be accepted through March 1.
Anything received after March 5th in the final review cycle may not be able
to be reviewed and dispositioned by April 8th. If you have extenuating
circumstances for a last submission beyond March 5th please contact
ODHE.
FY19 Review Cycle: Professional Development
Plan: Before each review cycle, OATN will host webinars to help institutions
with their questions around submissions.
Outcomes: Improved submissions that lead to increased approvals and
improved timelines.

Data Standards and Reporting: FY18
Phase One of The Statewide Guaranteed Credit Types Project, developed
statewide standards for HEI reporting of alternative credit types including
CTAGs, allowing for later query of aggregate data and reporting from the HEI
system.
Phase Two of the project is in progress to addressed institutional transcription
and data tables.
A Business Analyst was secured and has submitted a report for CTAV [Career
Technical Articulation Verification project] which focuses on the elimination of
the paper verification of credit form and automation of the credit process.
