STUDENT POLICIES AND PROCEDURES MSVCC Student Privacy

The local Host College has established procedures for protecting personally identifiable information within the Student Information System. For the MSVCC, the MCCB utilizes https and secure file transfer processes to protect student information during the transfer and storage of registration, course, and grade information in the ET. A unique, college generated student ID serves as the main identifier within the ET, Student Information System, and learning management system, and password encryption is determined by the authentication configuration set up by each school. Students can only access the learning management system using a secure internet portal. All information within each LMS is stored off-site in locations with firewall, network, and physical security. MSVCC Student Surveys MSVCC Student Surveys are made available in the ET and may be utilized to evaluate courses and student services at the Host College. MSVCC Attendance Policy In accordance with the MCCB Enrollment Audit and Reporting Guidelines, a student is considered IN ATTENDANCE for reimbursement purposes if they have not exceeded the maximum number of allowable absences in any given term. The ET attendance portal is available to MSVCC participants for documenting hosted and/or provided attendance. Colleges may elect to report attendance data either manually (instructor logging in weekly to the ET to record attendance using their unique login and password) and/or via database import (customized SIS import into the ET Data Portal). The MSVCC consortium defines attendance as active participation in course activities. In alignment with the typical course start day of Monday, the Enrollment Tool (ET) is programmed to allow instructors to record attendance as follows: • 8-week and 15-week classes: attendance is measured weekly, on Sundays, and should reflect documented engagement with the course content. • 3-week and 4-week classes: attendance is measured twice per week, on Wednesdays and Sundays, and should be based on documented engagement with the course content.
