Procedure to get a new course in a college?

STBR

Just wondering if anyone knew how colleges go about adding new courses.

There's a course a lot of people I know want to do but there's only a couple in the whole country, so I was wondering if I was to suggest it to my IT how likely would it be to be seen there next year?

What criteria would it have to fill, etc.

Thanks a lot!

i don't know myself but there was a fella in my class last year that was on about starting up a course (this was a PLC college now). but i think they were pushed for time to get it done. as far as this year goes, its way too late id say, with the CAO or interviews or whatever. the best way to go about it would be to speak to the IT about it, they'll point you in the right direction
