Description• Improving transfer for our students has become an ever-more important and complex goal, especially given the dissolution of CAN and new transfer initiatives such as LDTP at CSU and the UC Streamlining Project. A replacement proposal to CAN, called C-ID is being developed, and the 3 segments seek ongoing funding for IMPAC---the only formal forum for inter-segmental faculty dialog. As a senate leader, you will be expected to understand and promote efforts that strengthen student transfer to four-year institutions. This is your chance to learn about these important initiatives.
Alternative Titles• Transfer Initiatives• Acronym Hell• How does anyone ever get out of here?
• What happens when the legislature tries to simplify our lives..
Can you identify these?
• CAN• C-ID• IMPAC• LDTP• ICAS• SB 70• SciGETC• Streamlining UC• OSCAR; ASSIST
CAN• California Articulation Number• CC – CSU (UC never really played)• What can CAN do for us now?• While essentially defunct, CAN numbers will be relied upon initially for LDTP (more on that later)

What is C-ID?
A proposal that improves upon CAN– a supra-numbering system
– a response to mandates and needs
– course descriptors for use by postsecondary institutions and CCC students
C-ID: a response to mandates
• Legislation (SB 450, SB 851, SB 1415)
• MOUs
C-ID: a response to need
• Students• Articulation officers, counselors, staff
• Universities

IMPAC • To facilitate intersegmental and interdisciplinary discussion among segments of higher education
• To clarify expectations for major preparation
• To encourage faculty dialog of curriculum
• To foster intersegmental cooperation
Progress• 33 disciplines met• 12 interdisciplinary discussions held
• 2,290 faculty participated• 167 CAN descriptors were written/revised
• How many of you intended an IMPAC meeting?
Accomplishments• SciGETC• One-semester chemistry course• Supplemental labs• Advising letters• Alignment of learning objectives
• Development of LDTP course descriptors
Future• Uncertain—not funded in 2006-07
• Funds could be available in 2007-08
• Working with ICAS to advertise the accomplishments of IMPAC
LDTP Lower Division Transfer Pattern
• CSU Project (SB 1785 & MOU)• Goal: to improve transfer into majors• Gives highest priority for admission• Plan: to take effect Fall 2007• First 30 majors are to be completed by June 2006
• Approved courses will have a TCSU number
• Status
ICAS• Intersegmental Committee of Academic Senates
• The dysfunctional family dines together
• No, really – a valuable opportunity for intersegmental collaboration.

Statewide Career Pathways
• SB 70--chaptered into Ed Code 88532
• CCC System Office ---developing many projects
• Academic Senate will develop this one project: HS articulation
Goals1. Target relevant regional fields
2. Develop artic. & pathways3. Create artic. standards4. Identify online technology5. Increase student participation
6. Develop database7. Build sustainability
Some components• H.S. and college faculty meetings
• Database of agreements• Outreach to students & institutions
• Mechanism to sustain, renew, disseminate agreements
Status• Steering committee meets in July
• Existing articulation agreements are collected
• Progress on database• Working with System Office, DoE, schools, ROPCs, tech prep
Senate’s role• Curriculum oversight over all articulation (with universities & high schools)
• Benefit for our students• Reaching students in H.S. can bring them to colleges, then to universities
SciGETC• Science IGETC (intersegmental general education transfer curriculum)
• For high unit science majors• Goal: to permit postponement of 2 GE courses until after transfer
Streamlining UC Articulation
Project
• SB 477 requires every UC to articulate specific CCC courses/sequences when 4 or more UCs already articulated them
• Transfer pathways will be published
One more relevant acronym
• SACC =System Advisory Committee on Curriculum
• CIOs, SO staff, and ASCCC at the table to discuss matters related to curriculum
• Progress: Stand alones; Handbook
