Acknowledge a Proposal

Overview

What is a proposal acknowledgement?

Acknowledgements are required from stakeholders in the curriculum governance process when the new or modified curricula requires acknowledgement before being approved to be offered at the institution. Acknowledgements do not prevent the proposal from moving forward in the approval process.

Can I leave a comment when acknowledging a proposal?

Yes. Comments can be included when acknowledging a proposal but are not required. Comments are not editable and are displayed to all users viewing the proposal, including your name and a date and time stamp when the comment was made.
