Training Courses The Employer shall bulletin any training courses and experimental programs for which employees may be selected. The bulletin shall contain the following information:
(a) type of course (subjects and material to be covered),
(b) time, duration and location of the course,
(c) basic minimum qualifications required for applicants. This bulletin shall be posted for a period of two (2) weeks on bulletin boards in all Departments to afford all interested employees an opportunity to apply for such training. The senior qualified applicant shall be selected.
Alcoholic Beverages Costs of alcoholic beverages are unallowable.
Courses (a) Courses offered in the high school through UWHS are official UW courses, and students in the courses are eligible to register to earn UW credit in addition to the high school credit awarded by the School/District.
(b) UW courses will be taught in rooms provided by the District and/or School during the academic year. Specific course dates will be determined by the District, which will communicate course plans to UWHS.
(c) Specific to UW French, German, and Spanish courses, mixed-level courses are prohibited. All students in the classroom must be taking the same course and be at the same level of learning the language. For example, a FRENCH 103 course will include only students taking FRENCH 103 and will not simultaneously have students at a higher or lower level of French in the classroom at that time. The School/District may request an exception to this policy, and UW will review each request and promptly notify the School/District of approval or denial of that request.
(d) If a UW course in the high school must shift to hybrid or remote learning, in which part or all of the course instruction occurs without in-person, classroom-based instruction, the teacher will complete a course contingency approval form provided by UWHS. This form will outline the teacher’s plan for conducting the course in this new format. The teacher will submit this to UWHS, and the form will then be routed to the appropriate, discipline-specific UW faculty for review and approval. If the UW faculty have concerns, the teacher will be contacted to revise their plan. If the plan is ultimately denied by faculty, the UW course will be cancelled for UW credit and fees paid by and for all UW-registered students will be fully refunded.
(e) School or District may not combine within the same course section (i.e., all students in the classroom with the teacher) a UW course with another college’s course offered as “College in the High School.” The teacher is only teaching a UW course during that class period. If desired, School or District may partner with other colleges to offer other college courses in separate course sections, taught in different periods.
(f) In some circumstances, UW faculty have approved co-delivery of a UW course alongside an Advanced Placement (AP) course, with the same teacher and students in the same classroom. Such a course would be indicated in the course catalog, transcript, and syllabus as both a UW and AP course. School or District personnel should contact UWHS to confirm which UW courses are approved by UW for co-delivery with an AP course and to ensure course compatibility and syllabus approval.
