This easy to read one page guide was created by Life and Career Studies at Calvin University to give to faculty to share the basics about their program and how students are accessing university courses. It provides a good example of how to communicate with faculty in a friendly and easy to understand way about the program and its practices related to inclusive academics.
Strater, Kate
This resource shares two examples of Faculty Handbooks, developed at Calvin University and St. Joseph's University, that provide information about the program and answers common questions faculty have when they have a student from the program in their class.
Faculty Guidebook - Calvin University: Provides a program overview for professors, including staff contact information, outline of meaningful participation, information on academic course plans, student expectations, grading, peer partners, support for faculty, and frequently asked questions.
During a Student Credentials Affinity Group meeting, Dr. Kate Strater, Calvin University, shared her journey through the university credential approval process. Kate’s work included not only starting a new inclusive postsecondary education (IPSE) program for 20 students at Calvin, but the realignment of established processes to CTP guidelines. While every IPSE program is unique, Dr. Strater outlined the governance process in establishing a new credential.
