CTE Dean's Update     Randy Bryant
Randy announced that Moaty Fayek is working with Brandon Bailey working on website updates for state credits. Mary Pape asked if a student completed a non-credit class that is pre-req for another class, does their past completion of their non-credit course satisfy the pre-req? Randy Bryant said yes, per Title 5. Some exceptions would be mid-level courses for CSUs.

Randy Bryant notified attendees of a scam update that has been going around asking students to pay $300 to job applications as a fee to guarantee a job position. He encourage everyone to let their students know that this method is a scam and is not connected with De Anza.

Randy Bryant also mentioned the passing of AB297. Randy Bryant reminded Deans that Resource Allocation is due on the 22nd. With the help of SWP funds, a building modification for DMT was approved. Randy provided this example to encourage other Deans to think about their justification and resource request.
