(492kb)Is it a credit-hour or clock-hour program per the Program Integrity rules? Administering Title IV aid in a clock-hour program.
The Program Integrity final rules define a "credit hour" and specify conditions as to whether a program can be measured in credit hours for Title IV program purposes after July 1, 2011. As a result, some schools that currently offer programs in credit hours will no longer be able to do so, for Title IV purposes, based on the nature of those programs. There are important implications for schools to understand in such cases, since federal requirements for administering Title IV aid in a clock-hour program differ significantly from those for credit-hour programs.
This is a confusing issue, so TG is pleased to offer a webinar featuring Kevin Campbell, ED trainer, as subject matter expert on clock-hour program rules. TG's webinar will focus first on the criteria to determine if a program will be designated as a clock-hour program under the new rules, and then provide details on how to correctly administer Title IV aid in clock-hour programs.
This training will be especially helpful to schools that currently offer a program with state-based or accreditation requirements for students to receive a specified number of contact hours of training or to perform clinical or hands-on practical experience hours during the program.
