Section 715-025-0085 - DECLARATION OF LACK OF TIMELY PROGRESS FOR COMMON COURSE NUMBERING ARTICULATION POLICY DEVELOPMENT

(1) If the Transfer Council has not approved one or more Common Course Numbering Articulation Policies (CCNAP) listed in the annual plan adopted by the Transfer Council in the preceding calendar year, the Commission may declare lack of timely progress. The Commission shall consider any written notice provided by the Transfer Council.

(2) The Commission shall not declare a lack of timely progress if the Commission finds that the Transfer Council has approved a sufficient number of CCNAPs as necessary to make sufficient progress toward the establishment of a common course numbering system.

(3) Upon such a declaration, the Executive Director, or the Executive Director's designee, is charged with studying the matter to formulate draft CCNAPs for the Transfer Council. In addition to the work produced by the Transfer Council, the Executive Director, or designee, shall request information and input from chief academic officers at post-secondary public institutions.

(4) The Executive Director, or the Executive Director's designee, shall provide a recommendation to the Transfer Council not sooner than 90 days from the date the Commission makes such a declaration.

(5) The Executive Director, or the Executive Director's designee may hire consultants and may consult institutions to assist the Executive Director, or the Executive Director's designee, in developing the final draft of the CCNAP for the Transfer Council.

(6) Upon completion of the final draft of the CCNAP, the Executive Director, or the Executive Director's designee, will return the CCNAP to the Transfer Council for consideration and approval. The Transfer Council must approve the CCNAP, in the manner specified in OAR 715-025-0080(5) within 90 days of receipt from the Commission, or such other time as the Commission may determine in the declaration of lack of timely progress.

(7) Notwithstanding sections (1) through (6) of this rule, the Commission may, for any CCNAP not approved by the Transfer Council as listed in its annual plan, require the Transfer Council to include the development of such CCNAP in the CCNAP development plan for the calendar year following the year the common course was first included in the plan.

(8) Notwithstanding section (2) of this rule, the Commission may declare a lack of timely progress for any CCNAP not approved by the Transfer Council following its inclusion in two consecutive CCNAP development plans.
