Instructional Technology certification course (Joanne)
  • Lots of people ready to take the courses
  • The money has not been approved
  • The existing 4000 level course numbers will be used
  • The classes have been partly developed. We would like to do it via blackboard
  • They want their classes to fit their needs
  • All online program
  • Need to followup with RCDE.
  • Could be an internship or student project to get the information in blackboard

  • Committee is meeting on the 14th
  • Have a marketing plan by the 21st

    • Other programs
    • Selling faculty on the program
    • Look to other states
