Two distinct processes happen at the same time. Most importantly,
the campus prepares for the program to begin. This includes
determining faculty credentials, hiring faculty or Workforce Skills

organized outreach activities may include Outreach: to Corporate College and Chancellor
Advisory Council members, Community non-profit Advisory Council, Chambers of
Commerce and of couse area Independent School Districts (ISDs). In addition, we are
creating a communication activity to retail organizations who hire large numbers of hourly
workers who do not currently hold a college degree.
Process:
1. Program Preparation: The campus or System Office (SO) division with the new
program prepares for the instructional program to begin:
• Hire Faculty
• Determine if market stipend process should be started
• Determine faculty credentials based on industry standards, The Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges
(SACSCOC) and Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB)
