Programs of Study: Guiding Principles

OCCRL has worked closely with the Illinois Community College Board (ICCB), the Illinois State Board of Education, (ISBE), and the Illinois Center for Specialized Professional Support (ICSPS) to draft a set of Guiding Principles and Design Elements under which Programs of Study will be implemented and evaluated in Illinois. Throughout Fall 2008, work groups involving educational, policy and business leaders conferred on the POS framework, and recommendations were shared with the state.
