DOI office will incorporate the information from the DCS into an excel spreadsheet and send an electronic version of the SOC to DCs

The electronic  version will allow DCs to sort the SOC by several variables such as days, times, building, room etc

 

DCs and departments will discuss the SOC, look for conflicts, identify any concerns

Questions to ask:

 -Are classes of the same discipline competing with one another?

 -Are classes for the same clientele competing?

 -Are department offerings spread evenly across the week and time frames?

 -Are classes scheduled within the proscribed time slots?

 -Are prep times for labs accounted for?

 -Are classes with specific software in the appropriate computer room?

 -Are courses unique to certificates available for students to take?

 

Vice Chancellor and Deans to meet with DCs to review, and discuss the best possible  SOC for WCC

 -Are the sequential classes available from fall to spring

 -Are the needs of the students met for acquiring AA
