Information for Administrators

It takes a lot of behind-the-scenes work to put an online program or off-campus course together. If you play a role in that, the information below could be helpful to you.

Administrative Procedures

The Administrative Procedures page outlines the steps to take in order to create a new DE program and to determine if a course is considered “distance education".

Distance Education Advisory Committee (DEAC)

The Distance Education Advisory Committee (DEAC) page lists the contact information for each member of DEAC, the TWU committee that provides advice on distance education hardware and software and reviews new degrees, certificates, and tracks delivered via distance technologies as well as policies and procedures related to distance education.

Off-Campus Courses

The Off-Campus Courses section provides information on what an off-campus course is and the course approval process.
