San Diego College of Continuing Education to City, Mesa or Miramar College Credit by Exam

The goal of CTE Transitions Credit by Exam agreements between SDCCE and San Diego City, Mesa, and Miramar College is to provide SDCCE career education students with opportunities to accelerate college degree completion through the development and maintenance of agreements that allow students to earn college credit by successfully completing approved career education courses and/or programs at SDCCE.

The SDCCE Credit By Exam Instruction Certification form should be completed only by SDCCE Instructors who have taught a course or courses tied to active CTE Transitions Credit by Exam agreements between SDCCE and San Diego City, Mesa, or Miramar College.

SDCCE faculty teaching a Credit By Exam course:

Provide CTE Transitions Program Credit by Exam information to your students within your class syllabus and during the first week of class. Ensure the students are aware they may be eligible for college credit.
Fully integrate the college-approved final exam or portfolio process into your course. Administer the approved final exam or portfolio to all students participating in the course.
Grade all students participating in the course (final exam/portfolio grade and overall course grade)
Submit course grade and credit by exam final assessment grade for eligible students. Submit each eligible student.

The user guide is also available to assist with completing the form, https://www.sdccd.edu/docs/ISPT/workforce/docs/SDCEtoCollege-InstructorCertificationForm-Guide.pdf
