Instructor and Course Approval
Chemeketa’s College Credit Now program provides high school students dual credit for college level courses while
completing their high school program. High school instructors teach courses and course content that is reviewed and
approved in collaboration with Chemeketa faculty. Course outlines and textbooks are reviewed for college equivalency in
order to maintain the integrity of college programs, and meet accreditation requirements.
Instructor approval
1. High school teachers must be approved or provisionally approved by the appropriate Chemeketa Dean. Specific
requirements vary depending on the program. (See Department Requirements)
2. High School teachers must submit an application through the Chemeketa online application process and attach a
current résumé and/or their unofficial college transcripts, and syllabi with their online application. Please contact Mary
Jones: mary.jones@chemeketa.edu or 503.399.7856 to obtain the private link for applying for CCN online.
Chemeketa’s Dean in the appropriate area will review the teacher’s application, résumé and/or transcripts, course
content and textbook then approve, provisionally approve, or assist in development of a plan.
Provisional approval allows a teacher who is close to meeting all the requirements of the CCN program to teach a
course while obtaining approved status. The Dean of the program will work with MWEC Executive Director to outline
what is required and a timeline for the high school instructor to obtain full approval status.
3. MWEC will notify the high school instructor and principal by e-mail regarding the status of the teacher’s application.
Note: “If a CCN approved teacher relinquishes their classroom to another teacher due to illness or is replaced by a
student/substitute teacher, then the replacement teacher must be approved by Chemeketa.”
Recommended Graduate Coursework
Below are suggestions for teachers who need to complete additional graduate coursework in order to be qualified to teach
for CCN.
Writing
The recommended main course would be Composition Theory. Other courses recommended are Northwest Writers
seminar and classes with the prefixes WR, ENG or LIT.
Math
On the CCN website is a list of graduate level courses from Oregon State University hat lead to a Master’s of Science
degree in Math. Other 4-year universities likely have different but analogous offerings that would meet the same
requirements.
Math classes with ED(U) prefixes do not apply. However, there are several schools that do now have a Master’s in
teaching math that is focused in training students to become teachers, including at the post-secondary level. These
programs are different than the traditional MAT and we would need to evaluate which school and which courses on an
individual basis because of the variable nature of the programs.
Return to Index
Course approval
All courses must be approved prior to registering students (see Program Assurance). Applicants or approved CCN
instructors can request course descriptions/outlines by emailing Mary Jones: mary.jones@chemeketa.edu. If you are an
approved CCN instructor, you can view all Chemeketa approved course outlines by logging into your My Chemeketa
account, select the Employee tab>>Employee dashboard>>Sites>>Curriculum Resource Center>>Curriculum>>Course
Outlines. Courses must be taught following the current Chemeketa course outline.
Textbooks must be approved by Chemeketa faculty (if applicable).

CCN Course Syllabi Requirements
All courses approved for CCN articulation must have a detailed syllabus including the items listed on the CCN Syllabus
Checklist. All revised and updated syllabi will be due annually at least two weeks prior to the beginning of class. If your
2012-2013 syllabus is revised sooner, feel free to e-mail a copy to the CCN Office: mary.jones@chemeketa.edu . The
CCN Instructor may include additional information in the course syllabus as needed to meet high school requirements, but
must also include the college information. The format of the syllabus is up to the instructor. Some sample syllabi with the
required information are provided to assist you with developing your 2012-2013 syllabus.

Changing technologies may require frequent textbook changes. If the high school cannot use the current textbook listed
on a course outline, the instructor must submit their textbook for approval by Chemeketa staff. A letter of request for
approval must state how their current text supports Chemeketa’s course outline. Please contact the Chemeketa CCN
liaison to find out the current text book, so you can order a teachers edition from the publisher.

Procedures for Placement in College Credit Now Courses
NOTE: Picture ID and K number (Chemeketa student ID number) are required for all placement testing. Students
can take one free placement test per calendar year. All retests are $15 per sitting, whether for one or all three
portions of the placement test.
As a participant in College Credit Now you will be considered a CCC student once you apply for your K number (student
ID) and register for your CCN credits.
1. Admission Application: All CCN students must be admitted through the on-line CCN admission application. By
doing so, you will be coded with an appropriate program code that will allow you to register for a CCN course. The
admission application can be found on the MWEC website under Application Process:
www.chemeketa.edu/mwec/ccn/apply/ or paste this URL into your browser. Once you have completed the
application, you will receive an automated email with your username and Chemeketa “K” number ONLY if you have
input your SSN. Save this information to log into your My Chemeketa account. To sign in to My Chemeketa, you will
need your User Name and request a new password by clicking on the link located under the “Secure Access Login”
box. You will be asked to provide your first name, last name, social security or Chemeketa “K” number, and date of
birth; the date of birth uses pull down selection. Once you select the ‘Get Login Information’ button, an email will be
sent to your email account on file with a URL address and a token that is good for 24 hours so you can set your new
password. The password requirement is minimum of 8 characters and a maximum of 15 characters using both alpha
and numeric characters.
TIP! Even though it is not required, using your social security number may make it easier to retrieve
information from my.chemeketa.edu if you lose your username or password. If you didn't input your SSN,
please call 503.399.5239 or 503.399.7899 and identify yourself as a College Credit Now student.
2. Placement Test - Information can be found on our website under Placement Testing (only required for specific
Writing courses)
3. You can then “drop-in” to the testing annex anytime it is open (see the hours listed below). You will need a K
number (complete Step 1 above) and photo ID. You may already have one if you’ve earned credits from Chemeketa
before. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE YOUR K NUMBER AND PHOTO ID, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TEST! You
just need to take the COMPASS Writing exam, although you are encouraged to take the Reading and Math test at
the same time for no charge. Students can take one free placement test per calendar year. All retests are $15 per
time, whether for one or all three portions of the placement test.
The Testing center is located in Building 6, Room 216, and during the school year the hours are:
Monday, Wednesday & Thursday 10:00 am - 5:00 pm (must begin test before 3 pm, lab closes @ 5:00 pm)
Tuesday
10:00 am - 8:00 pm (must begin test before 6 pm, lab closes @ 8:00 pm)
Or you may call one of the following Chemeketa outreach locations for Placement Testing hours:

For summer hours, please check the Placement Testing website: www.chemeketa.edu/earncertdegree/testing/
If you have questions, please contact the MWEC staff at 503.399.5239.
If a group of students will be arriving together to take the placement exam, please call the testing center to make
arrangements at least three days ahead of time so that they will be prepared for the group. Once the instructor has
arranged the date and time your group will arrive, the instructor should send an email to Mary Jones:

Grading System
The following Grade System descriptions are from the current Chemeketa catalog and are posted for students under My
Chemeketa FAQs: Accessing Your Final Grades. For additional clarification or questions, please contact your Director’s
office.
Grade
What It Means
A
Excellent. An indication that the student has met the stated outcomes and course criteria at the highest level,
demonstrative mastery or required knowledge and skills.
B
Very Capable. An indication that the student has met the stated outcomes and course criteria at a high level,
demonstrating mastery of most required knowledge and skills.
C
Competent. An indication that the student has met the stated outcomes and course criteria but with sufficient
mastery of enough of the required knowledge and skills to be capable of success in other courses that require
this course as a prerequisite.
D
Limited Success. An indication that the student has only minimally met the stated outcomes and criteria of the
course but may not have sufficient mastery of enough of the required knowledge and skills to be capable of
success in other courses that require this course as a prerequisite.
Page 15
F
Failure. An indication that the student has not adequately met the stated outcomes and criteria of the course.
IB
Incomplete. An ‘I” must be requested by the students and is given at the instructor’s discretion when some
essential requirement of the course has not been completed, and additional time is granted for completion of
coursework. A contract will specify the length of additional time to complete the course material (standard is
one-term). If the contract is not fulfilled then the “I” grade will revert to the specified letter grade. An “I” does not
entitle a student to satisfy a prerequisite requirement for another course. (use very sparingly)
IC
ID
IF
P
DO NOT USE
NP
DO NOT USE
PL
DO NOT USE
X
DO NOT USE
R
Course Repeated. The "R" mark is used upon student request when a course taken at Chemeketa has been
repeated and the student receives a higher grade in the repeated course. If a course is repeated more than
once, only the original grade can be changed to an "R." This mark cannot be used to change "N" or "I" grades. –
DO NOT USE
M
Missing Grade. This mark appears when an instructor neglects to enter a grade for the course. Students
receiving an "M" should contact the instructor as soon as possible so that a grade change form can be
submitted to Enrollment Services to correct the omitted grade. – DO NOT USE
Grading Resources
In order to enter your grades, you must have you’re My Chemeketa user name and password! No one can enter your
grades for you because your name is tied directly to the course(s) you’re teaching. You can enter your grades anytime
during the grading period (including weekends). The information below is for those who would like assistance with the
process or who need access to a computer in order to enter grades.
Where to go for computer access and help: You can enter your grades on most any Internet-connected
computer! If you have access to a computer at home or at work, you can probably enter your grades using that
computer. Many public access locations (such as libraries and public schools) also provide access to Internet-connected
computers. Remember: you’ll need you’re My Chemeketa user name and password to get into the system! It’s a good
idea to test the computer you’re thinking of using before you need to actually enter your grades. If you can successfully
log in to My Chemeketa on the computer, you should be able to do grade entry.
Tech Hub/Digital Media Lab—Building 9, Room 126. Faculty guides are available for drop-in assistance on navigating
through My Chemeketa and they can walk you through the grade entry process.
Chemeketa Library—Building 9. Computers are available during the library’s regular hours of operation. Please check
with the library for specific hours of availability.
Chemeketa Outreach Campuses. During the grade entry period, trained staff will be available to offer assistance during
regular business hours at all four outreach campuses (Dallas, McMinnville, and Woodburn). Help also may be available
at other times; check with staff at the specific outreach campus for that information.
MWEC Office Mary Jones has received training on the grade entry process. She cannot enter grades for you, but can
help guide you through the grade entry process on My Chemeketa. If you have questions about the grade entry process,
or if you have extenuating circumstances that make it impossible to submit your grades in the timeframe allowed, please
contact MWEC. Enrollment Services staff will not be able to help you with these special cases.
If you have questions, please call MWEC @ 503.399.5239 8 am – 4:30 pm Monday through Wednesday; 8 am – 12:30

registration process instructions can be found on our website: www.chemeketa.edu/mwec/ccn/apply/ as well as in the

Cost and Payment for CCN
The cost for credit earned through CCN is $25 per student per year and students can take as many classes as are
available to them at their school. This is a significantly reduced rate to the standard tuition/fees for regular CCC students
(currently $90.00 per credit). The high school will collect the fee and Chemeketa will invoice the high school at the end of
the year for the total number of students (unduplicated headcount) as part of their Connections contract.
Drop/Withdraw Policy
Students are responsible to drop CCN classes by the drop deadlines for each term if they drop the class at the high
school, or if they decide not to have a class or grade posted to their college transcript. Drop deadlines are posted on the
CCN website: College Credit Now timeline. If a student misses the drop deadline, the course will post to the transcript and
the students is responsible for the course and grade earned. If a student has any questions, please contact the College
Credit Now office at 503.399.7856. To Drop a CCN course, a student must log into their My Chemeketa account and click
on Add/Drop classes, select the course(s) to drop, and then confirm the drop. For a student to verify that a course has
actually been dropped, click on Student Menu>Registration & Schedule Menu>Student Detail Schedule. The course will
no longer show on the student’s schedule if the drop was successful. Remember, if a student does not drop by the posted
drop deadlines, he/she will be responsible for payment and the course and grade posting to the college transcript.
Return to Index
Transcripts
Students have 24/7 access to their unofficial transcript and on-line ordering of official transcripts through their My
Chemeketa student account. Official transcripts cost $5 each and are sent electronically to the college or university
requested by the student.
Students are strongly advised in the Student Handbook to review their unofficial transcript after each term of CCN
registration to verify grades and courses are posted accurately. Courses are not posted to a student transcript until grades
have been posted. Courses cannot be removed from a transcript, but if an error has occurred in a grade posting we can
contact the instructor for a correction.
Page 24
Student Conduct and Cheating/Plagiarism Policies
Because CCN students are earning both high school and college credit for the CCN classes offered at the high school,
students are expected to follow student conduct policies of both the high school and the college. Student policies are
found in the college’s website: www.chemeketa.edu/aboutchemeketa/collegelife/studentrights/rights.html or in the CCN
Student Handbook.
Financial Aid Implications
The credits earned through the College Credit Now program may be considered within future financial aid awards. This is
a good reason to be very intentional about the courses and grades allowed to post to the college transcript. We
recommend only having grades or A, B and possibly C post to a transcript when you are still in high school. Please refer
to drop policies above.
FERPA Privacy Policy
FERPA stands for the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. FERPA is a federal law that protects the privacy of your
educational records as a student.
Only those records defined as “directory information” may be released without the written permission of the student.
Directory information at Chemeketa includes:
1. name
2. credit hour status (time status)
3. dates and terms of enrollment
4. degree or certificate earned and dates earned (including GED certificate)
5. athletic statistics and honors
No other information contained in a student’s educational record(s) at Chemeketa may be released to persons or
organizations without the student’s prior written approval. Chemeketa may communicate with the high school at which a
CCN student is enrolled regarding the student’s CCN participation.
Students with Disabilities
High schools and colleges operate under different guidelines for students with disabilities. All eligible students are allowed
to participate in College Credit Now courses, but they must meet the college requirements to be eligible for the college
credit. Reasonable adjustments in teaching methods and/or assessment delivery that do not alter the essential content of
a course or program, may be possible, but all students must meet the student learning outcomes and the assessment
rigor of the course in order to be eligible for college credit. If special services are needed, the student will work with the
high school for these services.
For a description of the differences between high school services and college services please access the following link:
Academic Accommodations: Differences between High School and College.
Tuition waiver for CCN teachers:
The teachers that offer CCN will also receive a three credit tuition waiver. You will receive an email in June.
The tuition waivers are good from fall through summer term of the academic year following the one in which you offered a
CCN course.

Art
Minimum Qualifications:
• A MFA in the studio art discipline that they are teaching, or
• Qualifying professional experience, 24 hours of graduate credit hours in the particular discipline, and
recognition as a working professional in the particular discipline that is reviewed and deemed equivalent,
plus
• A portfolio of their own artwork that provides evidence of the professional skills necessary to teach in
the discipline that the instructor would be teaching for Chemeketa college credit.
• CCN art courses should be taught separately, not concurrently, unless these art courses are taught
concurrently on campus. The majority of the foundation art courses have very different course learning
objectives and course content.
Page 38
•

•
•
Attempt to accommodate the teaching needs of a limited number of CCN students in a large classroom
setting while simultaneously high school instruction is being delivered, does not provide an equivalent
academic education, and is therefore unacceptable. We believe that a class should have a minimum of 15
students.
The establishment of supervisory contact between our program and each CCN instructor is essential.
The Art Program would provide online examples of its course projects and outcomes and in return
review the work produced in CCN art courses to assure that the instruction is equivalent. At this time the Art
Program does not have sufficient staff to coordinate with the HS instructors.
All instructors who are approved to teach CCN art courses for Chemeketa must instruct for the number
of class hours as specified in the course outline for that particular class.
All instructors must also provide a copy of the course syllabus for each course to the appropriate oncampus supervisor or outreach Associate Dean, plus a copy to the Art Program at the beginning of each
term, and must teach the approved course content, as set forth in the course outline.
English—Communication Skills, Journalism, Writing
Minimum Qualifications:
• To qualify to teach a College Credit Now English course, high school instructors must have a Masters
degree in English or a related field with a minimum of 24 hours of graduate English credit.
• To apply to teach a College Credit Now English course, prospective instructors should meet with the
English Program chair or the Associate Dean of Humanities.
Expectations of CCN teachers:
The following expectations must be met by instructors to teach Chemeketa writing courses as part of College
Credit Now:
Course Definition: Chemeketa writing courses must be taught as discreet courses as defined by the
relevant course outline, not blended into high school English or Language Arts courses or combined with one
another. This also means not giving Chemeketa credits for a certain level of success in a high school course.
Syllabi: Instructors must submit directly to Chemeketa’s English Program liaison person a separate syllabus
for each Chemeketa course not later than the first week of that course, with a copy to the College Credit Now
office. (It is preferred that this be done electronically as an attached MS Word or Rich Text Format document,
but it can also be faxed or mailed.)
All syllabi must contain the following:
• course prerequisites, if any
• the course description and outcome statements taken verbatim from the Course Outline
• the English Program’s Academic Honesty statement, verbatim, with any additional policies of the teacher
concerning the handling of plagiarism that conform to Chemeketa’s Academic Policies and Procedures
• a description of each of the major graded writing assignments required in the course as well as any exams
• a description of the teachers grading procedures
• a list of texts to be used in the course
• an indication of the daily and/or weekly schedule for course assignments
Texts: Instructors must use texts approved by Chemeketa’s English Program for each course or request a
deviation from the English Program liaison
Prerequisites: Course prerequisites, including required placement test scores for WR115 and WR121, must
be strictly enforced. Consent of instructor should be granted rarely, only to students who clearly display writing
skills at the prerequisite level and who have shown appropriate study skills and academic commitment for a
college course.
Page 39
Section limits: Writing sections at Chemeketa are capped at a maximum of 25 students, and we urge high
schools to abide by the same enrollment limits. If there are more students, we recommend that an additional
section be created.
Meetings: While College Credit Now requires instructors to attend one English in-service meeting each year,
the English Program may require a second meeting in the spring.
Questions: Questions about any of these matters should be directed to the English Program liaison person.
Languages—Spanish, French, Japanese
Minimum Qualifications (SPN101-103, SPN201-203, SPN211-213):
