Re: Examples of your course schedule approval process

At our last MACRAO meeting we talked about doing some MACRAO group zoom or other presentations of creative processes or new implementations people are doing.  Maybe instead of a presentation we can get a call together for this topic to share and discuss successes and challenges.  If people are interested I would be happy to host a zoom call or two (since summer can be hit or miss with vacations) for this topic.

We send out the call for changes shortly after census in the previous like term.  We have sent out call for changes for next spring about 3 weeks ago since we were late.  We will make the initial changes over the span of a couple months.  Then we will “publish” the changes in MyInfo with a “spring 2022 schedule is for planning purposes” note on it.  At that time we will send another campus wide call to check the schedule and submit any changes.  We “lock” the schedule one week before registration opens.  At that time any additional changes need provost approval.

 

I am VERY curious as to how this is managed on other campuses.  Perhaps we could schedule a conference call on this subject and have people share their processes?

Hope all your summers are starting off well.

 

We are in the process of revisiting the timing of when course schedules for the next year come to the registrar’s office and who is involved in the review and approval process.  If anyone has a document that references this process on your campus I would greatly appreciate seeing it.  The person driving this change has shortened the timeframe the registrar’s office has to to create the fall, spring, and summer schedule in banner to five days vs the previous two and a half weeks we had…and while I have determined a few efficiencies that can be utilized I’m not seeing how that is feasible given our office size.

 

If y’all have it figured out I would love to hear about your processes and timelines for course schedule development. J
