2 46 Central Virginia Community College The academic program for degree curricula has three instructional cores: the general core, specifying credits for each course area identified; the specialized and degree related core, specifying total core credits required; and college electives also specifying total credits required. Each community college develops its own certificate and diploma curricula as planned programs developed with the assistance of a local curriculum advisory committee for specific occupations. Academic Divisions The academic organizational structure of the College is divided into three academic divisions. They are: (1) Business and Allied Health; (2) Humanities and Social Sciences; (3) Science, Mathematics and Engineering Technologies.

4 48 Central Virginia Community College Community Service Programs Community Services include meetings and special community projects which are designed to provide needed cultural and educational opportunities for the citizens of the service region. These programs which are designed to supplement the regular instructional program will be designated as community services, and will not be regarded as part of the regular instructional program. The facilities and personnel of Central Virginia Community College are available for community services such as: 1. Faculty and staff speaking engagements for local organizations 2. Cultural events 3. Workshops, seminars, and informal discussion groups 4. Special community (research and development) projects 5. Availability of facilities (for community organizations and projects when possible and practicable) 6. Special campus services for use by local citizens including the library, learning laboratory, and counseling center For further information pertaining to Community Service programs contact the Office of Workforce Solutions and Community Education at (434) Developmental Courses Preparatory or refresher courses are offered to help prepare students for academic work in the various program plans of the College. These courses are designed to develop skills and better prepare students with the knowledge necessary to succeed in academic programs of the College. College Placement test will determine whether or not a student requires developmental course work. Any student required to take developmental courses must enroll through an Academic Counselor and will be required to co-enroll in the College Success Skills (SDV 100) orientation course. Students must satisfactorily complete developmental courses prior to enrolling in higher level mathematics or English courses. Developmental English courses include ENF 1-3 and developmental mathematics are MTE in the catalog and the course schedule. State and Regional Specialized Programs In the Virginia Community College System, certain highlyspecialized program plans, though designed to serve all Virginia residents, are limited in offering to selected locations. These program plans generally reflect geographic, demographic or economic considerations which preclude extensive offering statewide, and therefore usually are approved for not more than three community colleges to meet state or regional requirements. As changing circumstances warrant and additional state and regional needs are determined, specialized program plans may be located in other community college regions. A system program guide is available on the VCCS website: Transfer Information To help facilitate the transfer process, each state supported college and most private colleges in Virginia produce a Virginia Community College System Transfer Guide. These transfer guides can be obtained directly from the college of interest, may be referenced in the CVCC Counseling Department, found on CVCC s website by clicking on Academics and then Transfer Information, or by using the Virginia Education Wizard at CVCC offers many services and programs to assist transfer students. Students are urged to seek the assistance of their academic advisor or counselor to select transferable courses and to gain additional information to plan a successful transfer experience.
