Is+program+over+50%+online?


 * Online or off-campus delivery**

If a program is to be offered at a physical site other than the UWG campus for more than 25% of instruction time - or offered online for more than 50% of instruction time - it needs Substantive Change Approval from UWG campus approval processes, BOR, and SACS (at a minimum).


 * To what degree is your program offered online?**

If a student can earn more than half of the required program hours either in a course offered partially online (a D section) or fully online (an N section), then you may already be out of compliance. eCore courses DO count in this assessment.

(Update Aug 4): Electives DO ALSO count in this assessment.

One should look at the time it would typically take a student a graduate from a program (the DDEC is now reassessing it's initial figures below, using Fall 2006-Fall2010 data).

Before department chairs and deans can know whether their programs are out of compliance, they will need to track the delivery methods and off-campus locations.

As an example, the DE dept did a quick review of Fall & Spring 2010 online courses within programs - this information may help program directors get started BUT is NOT all-inclusive. This initial draft only looks at two terms and did not include electives. The DDEC is now reassessing it's initial figures below, using Fall 2006-Fall2010 data.
