Course descriptors
 Processes




Convening of intersegmental faculty for descriptor development
Statewide vetting of draft descriptors
Submission of course outlines for review
Course outline review process
What does C-ID do?
 Provides a numerical “tag”, a C-ID designation, for
courses that match an intersegmentally developed
descriptor
 Provides a means of identifying comparable courses
and of ensuring course portability within the CCCs
 Addresses the need for “common course numbers”
 When a college submits a course outline to obtain a C-ID
designation, they are agreeing to accept other courses with
that C-ID designation in lieu of their native course
What does C-ID do?
 Provides a mechanism for one to many articulation
 Any university can opt to articulate C-ID descriptors,
effectively granting articulation to all colleges that have a
course matching a given descriptor
 “descriptor-based” articulation
 Offers a quality control and model for required courses
in the TMCs (transfer model curricula) that are the
basis of the statewide response to SB 1440 (associate
degrees for transfer; AA-T/AS-T degrees)
How does C-ID relate
to SB 1440?
 C-ID’s products (descriptors) describe the courses
that are required in a Transfer Model Curriculum
(TMC).
 C-ID descriptors simplify the degree approval process
at the CCCCO.
 C-ID facilitates the portability of courses taken as part
of AA-T/AS-T degrees.
 C-ID’s processes are used to develop and vet TMCs.
What is the current status of C-ID?
 Descriptors still being developed for some required
courses in finalized TMCs
 Future TMCs will be developed in parallel with or AFTER
descriptor development
 Course outlines being submitted and reviewed for
receipt of a C-ID designation
 Process is slow for some disciplines due to lack of university
faculty participation
 Full CCC participation has not yet been obtained
 Administrative support and encouragement is needed
What is the current status
of C-ID? (October 2012)
 C-ID by the numbers:
 Finalized descriptors
 Non-ag: 204
 Ag: 140
 Draft descriptors: 19




Additional descriptors needed to support existing TMCs: 24
Colleges that have submitted at least one COR to C-ID: 90
Number of reviewed CORs: 1,910
Number of C-ID designations awarded: 1,140
CSUs have granted articulation for
over 900 courses in 30 disciplines…
What could C-ID do?
 Descriptors could be developed for courses in CTE
disciplines, transfer and non-transfer, where there is
statewide consistency in curriculum.
 Examples: Automotive Technology, California Association of
Alcohol and Drug Educator (CAADE) approved programs
 Where CTE programs are transfer programs, clear
high school – community college – university
pathways can be identified by linking the work of
Statewide Career Pathways and C-ID.
What could C-ID do?
 C-ID could support the effort underway to work more
effectively with high schools, convening faculty (CCC
and HS) to discuss cut scores and to develop
descriptors for basic skills courses.
 As the CCCs attempt to employ the ACE guidelines to
offer credit for military course work, existing and new
C-ID descriptors could be used to describe the CCC
courses for which credit might be awarded.
What could C-ID do?
 If the CSU (and/or) UC were willing, C-ID could offer a
simplified mechanism for gaining GE status. Note:
“pilot” agreed to by CSU.
 Assist “swirling” students, regardless of transfer
intent.
 Example – pursuit of a CTE certificate that is not related to
transfer.
C-ID and You
 Help/support/encourage faculty be ask that their
courses be submitted to C-ID
 Help/support/encourage AOs to submit courses to C-ID
 Educate all of campus community about the importance
of and need to participate in C-ID
 Foster the dialogue about the “big picture”:
 Benefits of TMCs for students and colleges (22 finalized!)
 C-ID provides “quality assurance “ within CCCs and for
universities

degrees on CSU Mentor?
 What should our students to do if they do not find their
degree listed?
More to be done…
 Remember, we are building and implementing the
system at the same time so work is ongoing!
