Courses will be evaluated using rubrics to determine alignment with the current academic standards approved by the State of Oklahoma (or nationally/ internationally accepted content standards set for courses whose content is not included in state standards) and national standards for quality in online course design. Course Providers whose courses have undergone review and approval by a recognized third-party entity must provide the results of those reviews. Depending on the results of the external review, a course may be recommended for state certification with no additional review or with a modified review process (e.g., review only for alignment to state standards). Online Course Providers of Advanced Placement (AP) courses must provide the results of the AP Course Audit and Authorization. No other course evaluation will be conducted for AP Courses. Online Providers must provide evidence annually of AP Authorization Renewal.

Once the course review is complete, results of the evaluation will be presented to the Statewide Virtual Charter School Board (SVCSB).

The Course Provider may revise the course and resubmit for additional Course Review and certification consideration. Resubmitted courses will be reviewed after all submitted courses have undergone an initial review. Courses approved will be certified for a five-year period. After which, Course Providers must apply for renewal. Certified courses will be identified as such and have their course review ratings published in the Oklahoma Online Course Catalog. Courses pending review will be identified as such in the Oklahoma Online Course Catalog.

				  renewal decisions. Additionally, the SVCSB may survey districts to collect
				  satisfaction data and those data may also be considered in renewal decisions.
