College Required Online Course Template Redesign

  1. When a department/cluster and/or e-Learning requests that a College-owned course template be substantially redesigned, the department/cluster must submit the ‘Scope of Work – Online Course Development and Maintenance’ form and receive an approval from the Vice President of e-Learning before any compensation is offered to a content expert/developer and development of the template is started.
  2. The needed changes have to be clearly identified by the department/cluster. The e-Learning director will review the needed changes and determine the percentage of course modification to be developed.
  3. A scope of work, with deliverables and timelines will be completed and signed by the contracted course content expert/developer. The document will state that once the course is redeveloped and approved, the course belongs to the College and ca n be assigned to any faculty member.
  4. The content expert/developer must request a mid-redevelopment review by department’s dean, associate dean or director and the e-Learning director to ensure course instructional content (at mid-point of development) meets department’s standards, is aligned to course outcomes, and meets approved course template structure.
  5. Payment for redevelopment will be calculated based on the percentage of the course to be redeveloped and calculated as a percentage of the full course development payment of $2,100 (e.g., 50% of template redevelopment = $1,050). Payment for template revision will be issued upon approval of the Vice President of e-Learning.
