Background Information - Need to Update MM Questions in CCCApply for September 2018 Release  

During a recent meeting with the CCCApply Redesign Workgroup - a working group led by Vice Chancellor Omid P. to address both AB705 and AB3101 - we discussed doing everything we can to accommodate getting changes in the September release in addition to a significant number of other priorities.
The Multiple Measures Steering Committee has proposed a set of changes to the existing MM implementation - a call was scheduled for 7.27.18 to review the changes for development & resource estimate.
