Implementation Project Overview

Colleges that are interested in getting started with the International Application implementation project have several options for getting started.

  1. Visit the Getting Started with the International Application page on the CCCApply Project Site. 
  2. Attend the IA Implementation Overview Webinar on Tuesday, February 23 for high level overview and Q&A.  This session is recommended for all colleges interested in implementing the International Application.
  3. Schedule your IA Project Overview meeting (required). This meeting is required; however, due to the high number of colleges who expressed their interest in getting started at some point this spring, we ask that you wait until you have confirmed your deployment date and it is within three months of the scheduled overview meeting.
  4. Attend the CCCApply Annual Workshop at Fullerton College  on March 22nd. There is an International Application demo and implementation session scheduled for 10:00AM, followed by an open computer lab session where support technicians will be available to answer additional questions to help you get started. 
  5. Advisory Committee members are invited to get started at any time*. A User account to access the Pilot International App Administrator has been set up for each committee member. You need this to set up Terms and Majors (even for test terms and majors) which are required to submit an application.  For more information about accessing your Pilot account, please see below.  

Getting to the Pilot InternationalApplication

Colleges can view the application - and submit test applications - by clicking the Application URL below (remember to replace the three XXX with your college MIS code first).  NOTE:  Unless there is at least one Term and one Major set up in the Pilot Administrator, you will not be able to submit a test application. For information on setting up Terms and Majors, please download the CCCApply Administrator User Guide.

Application URL: https://pilot.intl.opencccapply.net/gateway/intl?cccMisCode=XXX

NOTE: Replace the "XXX" with your MIS code to access your college's branded application.
Testing will commence 10.19.15 and continue through December 31, 2015.  
Instructions for Setting Up Terms & Majors (and Users) in the Pilot Administrator

  1. IMPORTANT: You must obtain your college Administrator and Report Center URLs from your IT team (or Admissions staff) to access these staff tools. The Tech Center does not have your URLs - these were set up by your IT staff when you first implemented the OpenCCCApply standard application. You will need both sets of URLS:  Pilot site Administrator & Report Center, AND the Production Administrator & Report Center.  You'll need the Pilot URLs for testing and implementation, but you'll need the Production URLs before you can go live to students (after March 31, 2016).
     
  2. Login to the Pilot Administrator using your Username and Password from your college system. 

    College staff user accounts are created based on your college  MIS code and the level of authorization approved by your college.  


    U = Data Use Only
    A = Add User

    NOTE:  An "Add User" account was created for each of the Advisory Committee members. If you are not an Advisory Committee member, please contact Patty Donohue, pdonohue@ccctechcenter.org to create a User Account.  After the first User Account is created, that user can create other users for your college. For more information on setting up User accounts, please download the CCCApply Administrator User Guide for details. 



Testing has begun and will continue through February 18, 2016. Issues identified during testing can be forwarded to Patty Donohue, pdonohue@ccctechcenter.org.   

Testers (college staff) that participate in pre-release regression testing need a User account will be given a link to the application and accounts will be set up for an Administrative User in the Administrator and the Report Center.  

Issues discovered during testing will be compiled and submitted to the developers for validation.
