High School Articulation

---

Teacher Instructions

Agreement – New or Renewed

Community college faculty are responsible for determining and authorizing appropriate curriculum and articulation.

To determine whether your high school or ROP courses are appropriate for articulation with a Las Positas College course, you will need to work collaboratively with Las Positas College faculty.

The articulation process allows faculty from both institutions to review the course content and determine whether the high school or ROP coursework appropriately aligns with the corresponding Las Positas College course.

• Directory of Las Positas College Articulation Faculty

Once courses have been identified as potential matches, the appropriate high school/ROP teacher and Las Positas College faculty member will need to meet and collaboratively review the courses.

The review may include:

• Course outlines
• Course competencies and learning outcomes
• End-of-course assessments
• Textbooks and instructional materials
• Other relevant course information

The faculty will use this information to determine whether the courses are sufficiently aligned to establish an articulation agreement.

IMPORTANT: Articulation is determined on a course-by-course basis. An agreement for one course does not automatically apply to other courses.

Approved articulation agreements are valid for three academic years from the date of endorsement by Las Positas College faculty/administration.
