Subject: Joint Final BAS Summary, SBCTC and COP


Dear Colleagues,



Hope this finds you well!  We (Julie Garver, Council of Presidents, and I) are happy to share a final summary of our collaborative work to address questions and areas focused on BAS degrees.



In 2018, Washington's public baccalaureate institutions and community and technical colleges engaged in eighteen-month process focused on BAS degrees. This process centered on the following: a review of the joint academic degree program planning process, development of a shared understanding of the approval process in the community and technical college sector, strengthening engagement between and among institutions, institutions and collaborating on communications to students regarding BAS degrees.



The Provosts of Washington's public four-year college and universities and representatives from the SBCTC Instruction Commission and Baccalaureate Leadership Council met in February 2018 to discuss perceptions, opportunities, and challenges focused on Bachelor of Applied Science degrees.



This meeting resulted in a set of mutually agreed upon recommendations. Since the meeting, SBCTC and COP partnered to implement the recommendations advanced by both sectors. Th e attached documents provides a final summary of this work.
This process also established processes for ongoing engagement and communication between the community and technical colleges and public baccalaureate institutions around BAS degrees.
We look forward to continuing to engage and collaborate across both of our sectors.  Please let me know if you have any questions.
Fondly,
Carli
