Abstract
This product includes forms and associated processes that aid in implementing student support services.
The Diesel Program Cost Sheet is an example of a tool that was used to display the cost timelines for a student. Similar cost sheets were prepared for other programs at various times. These cost sheets assisted in completing financial assistance contracts for TAA students and students with other funding sources requiring cost estimates. They also aided staff when advising students on budgeting and money management to promote retention. Cost sheets were updated as tuition and fees changed and curriculum/programs of study were updated.
The Example Course Progression Worksheet represents an Excel document that could be customized for each student's planning milestones and tracking student progress through the selected program(s) of study and award of credentials. It also reflects transfer and prior learning credits applied in lieu of coursework.
The folders DIESL CAs and ELCON CAs represent modified credential applications wherein the required courses in the program of study were added to the reverse of the form. This facilitated verification of completion of all requirements and timely submission for an award of the stacked credentials in the Diesel and Heavy Equipment Technology and Electrical Construction programs.
The Petition for Course Substitution is an example of a form designed to facilitate granting credit for required courses when students had previously taken coursework at the college that substantially met student learning outcomes in a WISE program of study. The college did not have an existing tool to document or request application of credit to a new program of study.
The Veterans PLE Credit Worksheet was designed to facilitate faculty review of Joint Service Transcripts and crosswalk them to program of study requirements in the WISE programs. While the example reflects a single course per page, faculty are able to insert additional tables reflecting multiple courses, course description, and the JST reference supporting the award of credit.
The Student Self-Evaluation (Construction Pre-Apprenticeship Students) was developed to aid support staff, faculty and students with quickly getting a handle on challenges that students might face. This was important as the program is a short one-quarter certificate.
