Governance of Online Programs
The Office of Online and Adult Learning supports fully online programs at Wichita State University. Our team provides support for all online program marketing and enrollment, and retention and advising support for undergraduate online programs.
New Online Program Development
Our team can help deans and departments to develop new fully online programs, whether it is a track of an existing program or one that would be new to the university. We can help with strategy, program, and marketing planning, and assuring compliance with regulations and state authorization requirements. For undergraduate programs, we may be able to provide advising support.
All faculty support funds are managed only by the respective deans. This includes course design or redesign stipends, overloads, or faculty lines. Online and Adult Learning does not provide any of this funding.
State Authorization
Online and Adult Learning supports regulations and reporting for all out-of-state learning with NC-SARA. This includes any for-credit learning opportunities for undergraduate or graduate students, such as practica, internships, placements, clinicals, etc.
If you have questions about whether a learning activity applies to the regulations, contact us.
Online Course Support
The Office of Instructional Resources provides WSU instructors of any rank a single point of contact for your training needs. Not only do our own experts offer training directly, we partner with experts across the campus to bring you the information you need to become the best instructor you can be.
They can also help you to learn about other online teaching development provided through third-parties.
