POLICIES AND
STANDARDS
High School Transcripted Credit Policy
To standardize consistency and quality in
delivery of transcripted credit courses with
Northeast Wisconsin Technical College (NWTC)
the following policy has been established.
Transcripted Credit Is Defined As:
NWTC course curriculum taught at a high school by a high school teacher or
technical college instructor certified by NWTC in accordance with technical
college system standards. Any qualified and approved transcripted credit
course for NWTC credit is subject to the following conditions and limitations:
• A transcripted credit course, taught at the high school, will be an exact match
of the NWTC program course including course title, course competencies,
contact hours, standards and assessments. Transcripted credit courses
must use the same or an NWTC approved final assessment/assignment.
• The same textbook/s must be used for the high school transcripted
credit course as is used in the NWTC class, or an acceptable, agreed-
upon equivalent as designated in the articulation agreement.
• The transcripted credit course will be reviewed annually by designated
NWTC staff to insure the required course content identified above
meets the standards. An annual Spring Summit will be scheduled as
a curriculum sharing event between NWTC and K-12 faculty, with an
expectation that all transcripted credit instructors attend. Exceptions
to these expectations may be made at the discretion of the appropriate
academic department. Other curriculum sharing meetings can be
facilitated with assistance of NWTC K-12 Relations, with the high school
instructor completing documentation to demonstrate compliance.
• NWTC reserves the right to cancel any transcripted credit
agreements if there is a concern related to non-compliance with
high school transcripted credit (non-participation in professional
development/curriculum sharing, failure to maintain course
alignment, utilization of inappropriate resources, etc.).
• Equipment and facilities at the high school must be approved by NWTC.
• The NWTC course offered at the high school is offered under a 38.14
contract, with no cost or billing associated with NWTC course tuition.
