The UW Parkside Flexible Degree Option Exploratory Group [July 12, 2012, 6:23 p.m.]


The UW Parkside Flexible Degree Option Exploratory Group was appointed to learn more about the context, mechanism, precedents, process, etc. for offering a competency-based, "flexible degree."  The group will serve as a point of contact and communication about the degree among partners and interested groups internally and externally.  As UW Parkside Chancellor Ford said in a recent communication to the campus, "This group will take the lead as UW-Parkside explores the possibilities of offering an online, flexible, competency-based degree in collaboration with UW-Extension."
