The Algonquin College Curriculum Review Committee (CRC) was established in
1999. The CRC name was changed to Program Review Committee (PRC)in 2013. Since its
inception, the PRC has evolved significantly and overseen the establishment of numerous
processes and tools to aid the College community with program proposal development, approval
and implementation. The Program Development Guide (or the Guide) is a resource intended to
assist program developers with the navigation of the program proposal development process.
Developed with input from past and present members of the PRC, this Guide represents a
compilation of the work of many individuals dedicated to the integrity and quality of Algonquin
College programs, whose efforts are grounded in the common goal of student success. The
contributions and commitment of PRC members are here acknowledged.
Guide website construction was led by Louisa Lambregts, Professional and Educational Content
Development, Learning and Teaching Services and Stewart Yemen, Web Services, with the
assistance of Trudy Price and Shannon Park, Administrative Assistants in the Academic
Development department. Their contributions are gratefully recognized.
How to Use the Program Development Guide (the Guide)
The Guide was developed for web based use and is available from the Academic Development
Homepage under the Program Development link. Throughout the Guide references are made to
available forms, templates and other resources that may be accessed from the website. It is
recommended that program developers peruse each of the Guide links, to familiarize themselves
with the content and resources available to support proposal development.
Note that the print version of the Guide reflects only the narrative content provided on the website.
The website must be accessed to obtain the supporting resources. Select documents or forms
referenced within the Guide, notably the Program Creation/Update Form (PUF), are only available
with access to the College Intranet.
Overview
The Guide provides a step-by-step overview of the Program Development, Approval and
Implementation Process.
Who Should Use this Guide?
This Guide will be useful for individuals interested in developing and launching a new program or
proposing a program modification (i.e., changes to the program title, vocational learning
outcomes, program of study/program duration).
