S&P Committee included a discussion about how to accomplish this in the Spring 2010 discipline hearing. However further discussions and development showed that the scope of this resolution was way too broad. So the committee developed a follow up resolution that narrowed the focus to developing equivalency criteria for associates degrees.

Whereas, There are significant problems with equivalency across the state;

Whereas, Single course equivalency, eminence, equivalence to coursework, and other issues continue to be serious issues;

Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges produce a process of consultation with local senate and discipline organizations leading to guidelines for establishing standards and suitable criteria for equivalencies; and

Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges present proposed guidelines for establishing standards and suitable criteria for equivalencies, including model practices, at a breakout at the Fall 2010 Plenary Session.
