Disciplinary Notations on Transcripts

June 22, 2017

2-3 PM ET  

This webinar will be hosted by AACRAO. 

Based on growing interest by AACRAO members, new and proposed state and federal legislation, and a demand for increased accountability of colleges and universities, the Transcript Disciplinary Notations Work Group was established by AACRAO in April 2015. The group was charged to develop guidance for AACRAO members regarding the use of disciplinary notations on transcripts for institutions that are considering the practice, or are required to do so by legislation. After releasing a draft for membership input in late February, the Work Group released the final report on June 7.

We hope that you will join the discussion of the final report recommendations, implications for institutions, and AACRAO next steps.
