The Course Program OSID provides course management
services for programs.
Programs
The Program is a canonical learning
unit describing the overall content of a program,
completon requirements, and earned credentials.
Courses may be associated with
Programs . but completion requirements are managed
in the Course Requisite OSID.
ProgramOfferings
A ProgramOffering is a canonical
Program offered for a Term.
ProgramOffering replicates some of the data
managed in the Program in the case it is
refined or tweaked. The purpose of the
ProgramOffering is to define the Term
in which students may enroll in a Program. While a
Program may span several Terms,
the offering tracks when the student enrolled for
the purpose of relating the completion requirements at a
point in time.
Enrollment
The Enrollment is an
OsidRelationship between a student and a
ProgramOffering. For multi-term Programs,
the Enrollment may continue beyond
the Term of the ProgramOffering
since the Term indicates what
requirements are applied to the student.
Credentials
A Credential is a something awarded to
the student at the completion of a Program.
Course Catalog Cataloging
Programs, ProgramOfferings,
Enrollments, and Credentials
can be organized into federateble
OsidCatalogs.
Sub Packages
The Course Program Batch OSID contains a Course
Program Batch OSID for managing Programs,
Credentials, ProgramOfferings,
and Enrollments in bulk.
