Canada Presentations

Ensuring that new students enrol in language courses at the correct level was an entirely manual process, very 'high touch', which involved many steps, many people, emails, phone calls, paperwork and general frustration. The existing course requisite structure addressed some of the problems, but was not an adequate solution.

Ryerson University's Curriculum Management Office worked closely with the department of Languages, Literature and Culture to identify the pain points of the existing process, and leverage the existing language placement testing process to pilot using student test scores in the requisite structure, using almost entirely delivered Campus Solutions 9.2 functionality.

This presentation will review the problems with the manual process, the steps required to set up test scores for use, the wrinkles in the plan discovered along the way, and their solutions.

The basic principles explained in this session also apply to using test scores in the Academic Advising structure.
