4. | Canvas Solution for ILP Colleges | Mike advised on 8/1 that a solution will be rolled out to Kern on Sept 1 to address the issue. Other ILP colleges will then start to get the fix. CVC has been working with Instructure and Ellucian on a new workflow to support cross-enrolled students. Previously, the method that was utilized by CVC was only supported by Instructure as a CSV upload process. In discussions with Ellucian, a CSV upload was not a viable option due to performance concerns in the ILP workflow, and instead, an API alternative was required in order for ILP to support the logins process at the Teaching Colleges. CVC, Ellucian, and Instructure met on 7/19/23 to discuss a possible solution for the API requirement. Instructure identified that the supported fields for the Canvas Logins API did not match the supported fields for the Canvas Logins CSV. So Instructure agreed that the simplest solution would be to extend the existing CSV-supported fields to also be supported by the Logins API. This would allow Ellucian to use the Logins API to create a separate ILP workflow to support CVC cross-enrolled students at the Teaching College.

5. | AB540 Student Residency Mapping | AB540 continues to be an issue in the system. Currently, we map AB540 students to a default residency status of “resident” at the Teaching College, rather than the terms under which the student qualifies for “Resident” status, e.g. AB540, Veteran, special exemption, etc. This has been highlighted as a problem in the past primarily around student headcount since AB540 student population headcount at the Teaching College receives more funding allocation than traditional resident headcount. This can also lead to challenges around reporting discrepancies where the Teaching Colleges report these students as part of their in-state student population, but the Home College reports them as AB540 students. However, the largest issue with not mapping the AB540 students to an AB540 residency status at the Teaching College is around the processing of the student’s CADDA request if they are an AB540 student. Cerritos college alerted CVC that if an AB540 student submits a CADDA request, they can only process the request if the student is classified as an AB540 student in their system. The requirement then is to begin mapping AB540 students from their AB540 status at the Home College to a “CVC AB540” residency status at the Teaching College. This status may be treated as either a resident or nonresident status for tuition rates at the Teaching College, but if the student is in the AB540 status, their nonresident tuition rate is waived so they will only pay in-state enrollment fees. At initial review, this will require a mapping change at the Home College contactinfo API to reveal AB540 student status, which leads to 3 residency statuses now. Resident, AB540 Resident, and Nonresident. | | | | Jira Legacy |

5. | Parchment Weekly Sprint Jira Status Updates | Product Priorities: Lane 1: Major Functional and Implementation Blockers We don't have a strong audit trail related to this issue, but we have spent time on it and our best assessment is that a few users accessed their profile link in the Exchange and updated the setting under Notifications to Allow Notifications. What we have documented is that the Allow Notifications opt-in was developed at the product suite level, without the context of which services a particular user is licensed, and so while CVC only uses Course Sharing and not the Credit Transfer features of the suite, when notifications are enabled users will be sent emails that are meant for our members who do use our Credit Transfer feature to manage equivalencies, as we saw in this case. We have made a change so that going forward, users will not be able to opt in to emails for a service that is not currently licensedVentura, along with examples from Santa Ana, Coastline, and North Orange are under review by the Parchment team. Additional discussion held with CVC and Parchment on 10/11/23. Next steps to be determined.
