College Resources and Governance

Welcome to the College of Education and Allied Professions (CEAP). The primary role of the College is to prepare educators, counselors, psychologists, recreation personnel, and other human service specialists at both entry and advanced levels. These professionals will staff public elementary, secondary, postsecondary schools, sport and recreation agencies, and other human service organizations in North Carolina and the region beyond.

The College fulfills its mission by developing and maintaining a community of scholars that promotes and recognizes good teaching, service, and research. Of these three scholarly activities, providing optimal learning environments for students is most important, followed by service and research.

CEAP provides undergraduate and graduate programs, including both traditional and online instruction.

Each program in the College has an advisory board with appointed members, organized by the program director/coordinator. Program advisory boards meet at minimum once per year to provide support and advise to program faculty. Board members also serve as ambassadors to the programs by connecting programs with external parties and share information regarding developmenta and news in the program field.
Below, meeting minutes from program advisory board meetings can be viewed:

To change the curriculum, you must initiate a change proposal in Curriculog, the curriculum management system. There are two main types of changes you can make to the curriculum:

  • Course changes: this includes creating or deleting courses and changing an existing course's properties such as prefix, number, title, description, credit hours, and prerequisites. Changes made to a course will affect that course no matter where it is listed in the catalog.
  • Program changes: this includes creating or deleting academic programs and making changes to them, such as what courses are required, what concentrations or cores (groups of classes) are in the program, and the admissions requirements.

A typical curriculum change must be approved by:

  • curriculog administrator
  • department curriculum committee
  • department head
  • college curriculum committee
  • college dean
  • university level curriculum committee - Liberal Studies, Undergraduate Curriculum, Graduate Council, and/or Professional Education Council (your proposal may need to go through more than one committee)
  • faculty senate
  • provost's office & registrar

Each of the committees meets at least once per month during the fall and spring semesters. The meetings are scheduled so a proposal without problems can flow through them within a few months.

The committee is scheduled to meet on:
November 8, 2024

December 2024 TBD
January 2025 TBD
February 2025 TBD
March 2025 TBD
