Upon student request, WATC will mail transcripts to other schools or prospective employers. Incomplete Classes Students unable to complete a course should contact their instructor regarding an incomplete. At the instructor's discretion, the student may be granted an extension of time to complete assigned work. Repeating Courses Students are allowed to repeat failed or dropped courses one times. Class Attendance Attendance is critical for learning and exhibits to prospective employers evidence of good work habits.
Instructors maintain attendance records.
Some programs are governed by state or national licensing agencies or professional accrediting organizations, which set additional attendance requirements. Each campus will apprise students of specific attendance, tardy and make-up policies at the time of enrollment or during orientation. All Wichita Area Technical College courses and programs are competency based. Program Advisory Committees, composed of representatives from business and industry, have identified and validated the knowledge and skills needed by workers in different technical occupations. These knowledge and skill competencies become the foundation for curriculum and are used to evaluate the progress of students.
