MSVCC P and P Revisions 5/3

To verify quality of courses to Host Colleges, the Provider College must upload an MSVCC Quality Verification letter to participating colleges inside of the MELA Canvas course repository as a quality verification notice. • Letters must be sent annually in October. • The letters should verify quality in courses from the previous summer, fall, and spring semesters. [Example: in October 2010, letters will verify quality from the previous fall 2009, spring 2010, and summer 2010 semesters.] • Letter should state the following: “I have reviewed the evaluations of courses and instructors as a provider of all instructors used by my college as a member of the MSVCC for the __________________, ______________, and ______ terms. I further certify that the instructors have adequate academic preparation for courses offered, course content matches criteria as stated in the Uniform Course Numbering System in Mississippi Public Community and Junior Colleges, and all courses meet the minimum guidelines set in the MSVCC Core Course Evaluation Guide. I agree to allow all students, hosted and provided, the opportunity to evaluate the course.” • CELOs should verify that letters have been sent. MSVCC shared students will be provided the opportunity to evaluate each MSVCC course in which they are enrolled for summer, fall, and spring semesters. Colleges may elect to utilize the MSVCC Student Course Evaluation Survey (Appendix I) and/or the MSVCC Student Services Survey (Appendix J). The surveys will be made available in accordance with the MSVCC Calendar. Proctored Exams Each college shall serve as a testing center for proctored exams. The college should provide an ideal testing environment and maintain the integrity of all exams administered. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Each college will take whatever steps it considers prudent to address ADA compliance for MSVCC courses and students. Host College Responsibilities The Host College lists the course, enrolls the student, and awards credit for the course. The Host College supports the student with a full slate of student services, including advisement and counseling, financial aid, and learning resources. Grades The appropriate personnel from the Host College will retrieve grades from MSVCC ET and record within the local student information system.
