Resolution Authorizing Technical Steps Needed for Inactivation of a Course that is Co-Listed as another Course

WHEREAS, the Ventura College Curriculum Committee (CC) makes recommendations for approval by the Board of Trustees on all VC curriculum, including degrees, certificates, awards, and courses, and the CC currently manages curriculum work using CourseLeaf’s Program Management and Course Inventory Management (CIM) software suites, and 

WHEREAS, the CIM system that has a single course outline of record (COR) for co-listed1 courses; and

WHEREAS, other college, district, and state systems2 have multiple records for co-listed courses.; and

WHEREAS, inactivation of one co-listed course, but not its companion course, would require a single revision to the CIM record to remove the co-listing designation, but would also require separate work on the multiple records in other systems(s) to formally inactivate the course,

RESOLVED, that the Ventura College Curriculum Committee hereby authorizes curriculum personnel3 to perform additional non-CIM steps required to inactivate a course formally approved for inactivation by the Ventura College Curriculum Committee.
