  4. The TAC Mission • Serve as the policy administrators of the CAA with authority to interpret CAA policy • Oversee implementation of and compliance with the CAA • Ensure compliance of institutional policies and practices regarding the CAA • Address questions about transferability of course work under the CAA or proposed changes to policies, courses, and BDPs • Provide general counsel and recommendations to the NCCCS and the UNC System on matters related to optimal transfer between the two systems (added Fall 2018)

  5. CAA Compliance Review Site Visits Round 2 • Revised and expanded CAA review data form. • Site visits include campus interviews with the transfer point person, the transfer articulation staff, transfer and program advisors, and NCCCS transfer students. • TAC also conducts a campus forum. • Universities receive feedback on their CAA review data forms and a formal report following the visit.

  6. CAA Compliance Review Site Visits Round 2: 2018-2019 • Eight UNC System institutions reviewed in Fall 2018. • App State, ECU, Elizabeth City State, NC Central, NC State, UNC Charlotte, UNC Greensboro, Winston-Salem State • Four institutions scheduled for review this Spring 2019. • NC A&T, UNC Asheville, UNC-Chapel Hill, Western Carolina • Three institutions will be scheduled for Fall 2019. • Fayetteville State, UNC Pembroke, UNC Wilmington

  12. Baccalaureate Degree Plans • BDPs are a critical component of the transfer process. • NCCCS students should develop/examine three to four plans as early as possible upon enrollment at CC. • Site visits have revealed that centralized BDP management best supports plans being kept current on university websites. • A section regarding BDP management was added to the latest CAA review data forms. • There is no mandated template for BDPs, at this time. • Tracking student BDP selection is problematic.

  13. ACA 122 – College Transfer Success • This course should focus on course transfer outcomes. • Best practices suggest mandatory early student enrollment. • It is helpful to coordinate the instruction of this course with campus advisors. • Students should develop individualized BDPs. • Instructors should emphasize the CAA and its protections: Degree completion, UGETCs, BDPs, Appeals process • Students should be aware of the tuition surcharge possibility.

  14. Community College AdvisingBest Practices • Provide professional development and training opportunities. • Allocate institutional resources. • Communicate and collaborate with UNC System transfer personnel. • Incentivize associate degree completion and full-time enrollment. • Analyze institutional transfer data. • Participate in upcoming community college advising survey administered by the TAC.

  15. UGETC Courses • Credit must be applied toward lower-division, general education course requirements. • Students must earn a grade of C or better in order to attain this credit. • The process for an NCCCS course to gain UGETC designation is quite involved and the bar is set very high as all UNC System institutions must agree to accept the course as a lower-division GE course (see CAA Appendix C).

  16. Update February 2019: CAA Course Status Changes • Two proposed additions to UGETC • COM 120: Interpersonal Communication • DRA 111: Theatre Appreciation • One proposed General Education course • PSY 230: Biological Psychology

  17. Expanding Transfer • The CAA has served as a foundation for other more recent articulation agreements. • The variety of transfer pathways is increasing: AA, AS, AE, AFA, AECE, RN to BSN. • Some NCCCS and UNC System institutions are developing co-admission agreements. • The number of CIHS and CCP students continues to grow. • There are many bilateral agreements between individual NCCCS and UNC System institutions around AAS degrees.

  18. Proposed TAC/CAA Webpage • Most current CAA document (February 2019) • TAC meeting minutes and updates • TAC membership and contact information • CAA legislative reports • Transfer course lists • Transfer presentations and research articles • Other articulation agreements • UNC transfer point person list • UNC transfer page link
