School districts submit a CCP Planning Form (CPF) each year (due the last business day in October). The CPF lists the courses(s) the district plans to offer in the high school, the term for which the students are to be enrolled, and any new high school instructors to be reviewed for the course. Potential instructors (not yet approved) designated on the form complete, and submit, the CCP Instructor Application Packet by the last business day in October. Credit courses cannot be offered without an instructor approved by YSU.

Districts

• On-campus or online courses:
  • Expand course offerings with college courses not offered in the high school schedule
• High school-based courses:
  • Maintain the academic standards of the high school
  • Retain high-achieving students on the high school campus
  • Expand access by removing barriers such as transportation to and from campus
  • University placement and department exams provide additional measures for teachers and districts
  • Cost-effective compared to on-campus tuition

CCP instructors must respond to evidence of student academic dishonesty. Academic dishonesty, as defined by The Code of Conduct, includes, but is not limited to, use of any unauthorized assistance in taking quizzes, tests, assignments, or examinations; letting someone else write his/her papers, preparing reports or other work; letting someone else use his/her papers, prepared reports or other work to copy; cheating and plagiarism (please see The Code of Conduct for more information).

Assessment is determined by each academic department and will differ from department to department. In addition, CCP students are asked to complete the online Student Evaluation of Teaching and Learning per YSU and state policy. If an instructor is contracted to teach multiple sections or courses, student evaluations are provided for each section/course.

Once a final grade (A-F) is entered into Banner, the CCP instructor cannot change it independently. A YSU Grade Change form is completed in order to change the grade. It requires the student, instructor, department chair, and college dean’s signature. Please contact the CCP office to begin this process.

Entering Grades

CCP instructors submit final grades online via the Penguin Portal, or “Banner.” Submitting final grades into the Banner system is a critical task for the internal reporting processes at the university. Failure to do so also creates problems for students who need transcripts from other colleges. CCP staff sends an e-mail reminder the week before grades are due.

Rosters indicate which students are enrolled for college credit in a specific course. It is extremely important to verify the roster(s) to prevent students from missing an opportunity they thought they had and to prevent serious problems if a Change of Registration form is not submitted in time. To learn more, please see How to See Your Rosters and Submit Final Grades.

CCP communicates with instructors via the “preferred e-mail account” provided on the CCP instructor application. It is essential that CCP instructors regularly monitor their e-mail for critical information about course management, meetings, and other activities.

It is the instructor’s responsibility to notify YSU CCP staff of any contact information changes, including phone numbers and e-mails by e-mailing ccp@ysu.edu. Failure to notify YSU of a change in contact information or not checking your YSU or preferred e-mail accounts does not reduce your responsibilities as a YSU instructor.
