Greetings Dr. Obielodan.
Please see the approval from Ms. Brothers below. CPE portal is new and they are still working out the glitches. It will not show on the CPE dashboard until she returns from vacation.
Please prepare the staff not for the next BOR meeting to include on the agenda, and submit to the Provost.
As the catalog is published, please send the content and I will update it as the administrator with the help of CourseLeaf.
