What are you requesting? Why is the request being made? Where was the need identified?
Creation of an Articulation operating budget in order to support the 4 objectives identified in Program Review for
Articulation. The Transfer & Articulation Coordinator position is required to travel district-wide, attend multiple
CCC, UC, CSU and AICCU meetings statewide and to maintain contacts and curricular currency for seamless
transfer curriculum and transfer patterns.
Creation of SB 1440 Transfer degrees require participation in statewide meetings, specific training on required
coursework via ASSIST and C-ID course submission at the state level and MSJC faculty meetings to expedite
creation or modification of MSJC’s coursework and degrees. SB 1440 degrees are legislatively mandated and all
costs associated with this ongoing mandate are deferred to individual community colleges (no state funding
allocation are intended).
Meetings include CCC Chancellors office meetings, CIAC (statewide articulation council) and SCIAC (Southern
California articulation council and Region 9 articulation council). Travel expenses, membership fee for Articulation
council, printing and equipment needs; including printer supplies, paper and general office supplies and software for
curriculum submission to ASSIST, OSCAR, STAR (SB-1440), C-ID, CurricUNET and the Curriculum Institute.
Due to funding cuts to the Career/Transfer Center budget the Articulation Coordinator was unable to attend 2012-13
SCIAC and CIAC meetings.
Demonstrate how your request is supported by your Program Review/Annual Program Assessment:
The Articulation student learning outcome identified in objective #2 regarding expansion of articulation and
electronic resources for Counseling and objective #4 regarding the development of SB 1440 STAR transfer
degrees.
Section I
In addition to what is stated above, MSJC is legislatively mandated to create SB 1440 (TMC) degrees and
courses identified on these degrees must be submitted and awarded a C-ID equivalent code (this was changed
during fall 2012 by CCCCO). Also amended in Fall 2012 is the 100% compliance with SB 1440 degree
submission by 2014-15.
To enhance and expand external curriculum demands and support the Transfer & Articulation Coordinator for
student, faculty, staff and community training on new programs and changes to curriculum trends at the fouryear universities which impact transfer students and coursework taught at MSJC.
Demonstrate how your request is supported by your Unit Plan and Division Plan (link to Unit/Division Plans 2011-2012)
This directly supports objectives #1, 2, 3 and 4 in program review and the Transfer & Articulation learning outcome, and
identified as #4 on the 2011-12 Assessment Plan for Student Services and linked to # 1-5 Institutional Goals.
Section I
Demonstrate how your request is supported by your CLO/DLO/PL0/AUO/SLO:
Section I
As identified on the 2011-12 Assessment plan #6 Service Area Outcome/Department Learning Outcome:
Work closely with specific disciplines and individual faculty throughout the academic year to facilitate the
degree creation process. The Early Childhood Education and Political Science AA-T degrees were completed,
BOT approved, CCCCO submitted and approved for the 2013-14 catalog. The existing Anthropology, English
and Geography transfer degrees were modified to AA-T degrees, the new History TMC was created and BOT
approved 3-14-13 and submitted to CCCCO for approval 3-27-13.
Describe how your request is aligned with one or more of the following Institutional Priorities: (link to SP)
Student Success
To improve student transfer, degree completion, course completion and time to completion; curriculum gaps
are identified, monitored and flagged in order to meet with faculty and discuss the possibility of modifying
current curriculum or creating new curriculum to fill these gaps and create TMC degrees when appropriate,
posted at CCCCO and based on aligned curriculum.
Section II
Fiscally Sound Position:
To meet the needs of the district and to promote a greener environment all articulation agreements have been
loaded on the Career/Transfer web page with links to the Counseling web page for electronic dissemination to
all sites and all students. MSJC no longer prints Articulation agreements as a standard practice.
Articulation updates and web posting is an ongoing process as articulation changes each academic year and
occasionally semester changes are required.
Systematic Planning and Assessment:
Monitoring the curriculum submission to ASSIST database for articulation at the course level, general
education and major preparation to determine if curriculum gaps have been cleared. This is an ongoing process
which is continually changing. As the gaps are filled or new gaps created faculty meetings are scheduled and
discussion is taken to the Curriculum Committee. The new curriculum submission into the C-ID (course
numbering project) which augments the SB-1440 TMC regulation for transfer degrees and CurricUNet have
added to the internal and external data which will be collected.
Institutional Pride and Organizational Culture:
Articulation targets and encourages faculty and staff participation in any workshop provided through the
Career/Transfer Center. Specific workshops and meetings are created to target faculty only, surveys have not
been created for these events.
Section II
Community Partnerships and Service
Maintain curriculum in the ASSIST statewide database for transferable curriculum, submit and maintain
curriculum in the CSU General Education pattern for CSU transfer and the IGETC pattern for UC and
University transfer. Update these curriculum lists for students, faculty and degree audit via Datatel and catalog
update and post to the MSJC website.
Describe how your request will support one or more of the 12 Institutional Goals in the Strategic Plan (Strategic Plan)
Articulation directly supports student success
Section III
Demonstrate how your project goals are supported by any of the following plans (2009-16 Educational Master Plan, Distance
Education Plan, Technology Plan and/or the Facilities Master Plan):
Section III
The ability to analyze current transfer and articulation statewide requirements and disseminate this information
via training to counselors and faculty as information, legislative mandates and transfer trends impact multiple
areas addressed in the Master Plan and individual departmental program reviews. Educational Attainment
trends are identified on page 27 in tables 13 and 14. To increase the numbers for degree attainment a seamless
process for transfer must be maintained with curriculum identification a major component for all academic
areas as identified in pages 79-282 of the Education Master Plan.
Describe your goal(s) for this proposal? How will this impact students or institutional services?
Section III
This budget creation is necessary to maintain currency in statewide academic changes to curriculum, degree
creation, transfer policies and legislative mandates.

due to budget restrictions and the reduction of the Career/Transfer Center budget.

CLO/DLO/PLO/AUO/SLO
