Planned Programs

16 KAR 5:010. Standards for accreditation of educator preparation units and approval of programs. Section 11. (6) A curriculum guide sheet or contract provided to each candidate before or at the time of admittance to the program.

DegreeWorks matches candidates’ academic and course history against the degree requirements as defined in the Undergraduate or Graduate Catalog. It is a Web-based tool for students to monitor their academic progress toward degree completion. DegreeWorks also allows candidates and their advisors to plan future academic coursework. A DegreeWorks audit is a review of past, current and "planned" coursework that provides information on completed and outstanding requirements necessary to complete a degree/major/minor/concentration. The information in DegreeWorks is refreshed each night. Admission and Exit criteria are maintained in University Catalogs. Portfolio requirements are distributed during initial education classes and are reinforced throughout the program.

In addition to semester advisor meetings, undergraduate candidates review their program requirements with the Tracking Specialist at the time of admission to the teacher education program.
