ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE MANUAL SECTION TITLE POST-SECONDARY ADULT VOCATIONAL (PSAV) CLOCK HOUR ATTENDANCE NUMBER PAGE 10-0609 1 OF 1 BASED ON BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ RULE AND TITLE 6Hx7-10.6 Student Standards of Progress DATE REVISED January 6, 2015 Purpose This procedure describes the steps for maintaining attendance records and defines the personnel accountable for doing so in Workforce Education Post-Secondary Adult Vocational (PSAV) clock hour programs. The recording and reporting of student attendance in PSAV programs will adhere to Federal and State of Florida financial aid rules and regulations. This requirement is in addition to any other attendance requirements that may be imposed on PSAV programming by a State or Federal entity that regulates PSAV programming. Procedure A. Faculty/instructor is required to record student class attendance data or verify authenticity of student reported class sign-in/sign-out data for all assigned PSAV clock hour courses using an approved tracking system. The data collected will include student absence or presence for each official class meeting and the number of hours for each class session the student attended. B. If a student’s attendance pattern triggers an attendance related grade, the faculty member/instructor will enter the appropriate grade (FN or course failure due to student non-attendance) in the online grading system as soon as possible. C. Program Managers are required to review the attendance data to ensure that the attendance policy is being followed and appropriate records are being maintained and reported. Any discrepancies will be discussed with the faculty member/instructor prior to making changes. D. Program Managers are required to forward PSAV clock hour attendance data to the Director of Financial Aid on a weekly basis.
