Accelerated Learning Peer Review

You can find information here about the peer review process for accelerated learning, including the current schedule and status of this work. The Higher Education Coordinating Commission (HECC) is charged with developing statewide standards for accelerating learning.

The HECC  works with an Oversight Committee for High School Based College Credit Partnerships on the peer review process for state approval of Dual Credit, Sponsored Dual Credit, and Assessment Based Learning Credit programs in Oregon. The Oversight Committee makes recommendations to the HECC and the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) staff, and provides support and guidance for high schools, universities, and community colleges as they develop high school-based college credit partnerships. This committee has a peer review process to support continued adherence to the standards.

HECC and ODE staff coordinate the peer review process, which includes self-study and facilitated peer review. Details on this process are in the documents below:
