Summary of Changes from Previous Version

The External Advisory Committee Procedures have been updated to incorporate Associate Degree Course Advisory Committee (ADCAC) Policy, enabling the retirement of the latter. As the Committees provided for under these serve a key function in Curriculum Design and Approvals (CDA) process, the associated Procedures are reflected as components of the CDA Policy framework.

The most significant updates were the inclusion of new Clauses 3, 14 and 15, relating specifically to Associate Degrees, and the addition of explicit references to The College at Clauses 11 and 11d. These new and amended Clauses represent the elements where the two committee types diverge, and therefore required specific representation.

Clauses Amended:Policy: All
Guidelines: All
