Out of State Learning Placement Reporting

页面内容

NC-莎拉

 

Distance education includes offering online courses as well as offering out-of-state placements/field experiences.  Offering distance education outside of the state in which an institution of higher education is located requires the institution to become authorized in each state and protectorate in which the institution intends to offer distance education (which is known as "state authorization").  Alternatively, institutions can become participating members of The National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (NC-莎拉) which allows institutions to offer distance education as long as they abide by the participation agreement requirements.  USM participates in NC-莎拉.

As an institution participating in NC-莎拉, there are certain requirements that USM 必须满足. One such requirement involves providing an annual report of distance learning placements in every state or territory other than their own. 汇报学习情况 placements, referred to as out-of-state learning placements (OOSLP).

Though learning placements occur in a variety of disciplines, they are particularly common in certain fields, such as health-related disciplines and education. 他们是 often a required part of obtaining a degree and/or license to practice a particular 职业. Institutions do not report their in-state learning placements to NC-莎拉. Only out-of-state learning placements are reported.

These activities are an important part of many academic programs and the 数量 and extent of such placements are of great interest and concern to educators, practitioners, licensing bodies, and state regulators.
