This guide presents state policies and procedures for all types of off-campus instruction delivered by Colorado institutions. Instruction may be offered at off-campus locations, at other institutions' campuses, or delivered to students via the mails or electronic media. Part A provides an introduction, while Part B considers general policies concerning institutional responsibility, reporting and accountability, tuition and fees, student qualifications and services to students, faculty standards, quality control in program and course approval, and facilities use agreements. Policies and procedures specific to the Statewide Extended Studies Program are covered in Part C, including: primary service areas; budgeting and funding; the Denver Metropolitan Area coordinating system; system support contributions; minimum class size; student registration and student services; independent (correspondence) study; and space available programs. Part D looks at off-campus state-funded programs. Covered are objectives, academic standards, proposal content, and replacement of the current alternative site and cooperative programs policies. The final part reviews policies for out-of-state and out-of-country programs including general policies, exclusions, and class excursions. Thirteen appendices include forms, details on service areas, financial reports, and program priorities. (DB)
