COURSE NUMBERING EXPLANATION

The course numbers are related to the national Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) index.

Appendix A contains the list of all state-funded subjects for kindergarten through the eighth grade and courses earning Carnegie unit credit.

Assigning correct numbers as students register for courses ensures that accurate data are gathered by the Department. Such data identify the number and program designations of students involved in all state-funded courses.

The process for assigning a number to subjects or courses is as follows:

(1)	Determine the needs of each student. This process will involve knowing whether the student is to participate in special programs with specific guidelines.

(2)	Identify the appropriate subject or course for each student. The course numbers precede the title of the subject or course. There must be a valid number assigned as prescribed in this rule for each course that a student takes for which the local school systems received state funding.

(3)

Select numbers from the subject and course list. The whole number identifies the discipline or content area. The first digit to the right of the decimal identifies the type of instruction for each student in a particular subject or course. Local school systems determine the appropriate number for the first digit to the right of the decimal using the options stated on pages 3 through 6. In the following list, a 0 is placed as the first digit to the right of the decimal. Exceptions are a 3 designating a Virtual High School course, a 4 designating a one hour lab course, a 5 designating a two hour lab course, and a 6 designating a three hour lab course. The second, third, and fourth digits to the right of the decimal are static. The fifth digit to the right of the decimal will generally be a zero. However, local school systems should refer to pages 6 through 8 to determine if other digits should be used. The sixth and seventh digits to the right of the decimal are for local school system use. A total of nine digits (a two digit whole number and seven digits to the right of the decimal) must be given for each course. The following list includes seven of the nine required digits. As stated above, local school systems will either add two zeros for the last two digits or use other locally identified digits.

The position of the nine numbers is as follows:

12.3456789

The two digit whole number to the LEFT of the decimal designates the main subject area field.

EXAMPLES: 27.0000000 = MATHEMATICS

49.0000000 = MANUFACTURING SCIENCES

53.0000000 = MUSIC

The first numerical digit to the RIGHT of the decimal identifies the type of instruction.

EXAMPLE: 53.0000000 = MUSIC, GENERAL CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION

The options for the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal are explained below.

XX.00 = GENERAL INSTRUCTION

A 0 as the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates general instruction. A 0 means that the course is taught in a traditional or regular classroom setting.

XX.11 = REMEDIAL INSTRUCTION

A 1 as the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that the student taking the course is identified as a participant in either the grades K-5 Early Intervention Program (EIP) or the grades 6-12 Remedial Education Program (REP). State Board of Education Rules EARLY INTERVENTION PROGRAM (EIP) and REMEDIAL EDUCATION PROGRAM identifies the eligibility requirements for students receiving EIP or REP instruction. The EIP provides an intervention program for students in grades K-5 who are at risk of not reaching or maintaining academic grade level in English language arts and/or mathematics in Kindergarten and in reading and/or math for grades 1-5. The REP provides a remedial educational program designed for students in grades 6-12 who have identified deficiencies in reading, writing, and/or math. Consequently, a 1 in the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal is valid ONLY for EIP or REP served students at these grade levels.

XX.22 = GIFTED INSTRUCTION

A 2 as the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that the student taking the course is identified as a participant in Gifted Education. State Board of Education Rule Educational Program for Gifted Students describes the requirements necessary for students participating in the Gifted Education program. Courses for gifted students include mathematics, science, English/language arts, social studies, foreign languages, fine arts, and technology/career education. The approved delivery models for Gifted Education services are described in the Department of Education Resource Manual for Gifted Education Programs.

XX.33 = DISTANCE LEARNING

A 3 as the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that students taking the course are doing so in a distance learning classroom setting. Distance learning can be through interactive telecommunications, virtual high school on-line courses, or any other setting when the instruction is delivered and received through electronic communication means. The courses listed with a 3 in the first digit to the right of the decimal in the following list are Virtual High School courses.

XX.44 = ONE HOUR LAB

A 4 as the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that students are taking the course as a one-hour lab class.

Vocational labs are state-approved vocational courses. Descriptions for vocational labs are found in FTE Program Codes and Weights. Vocational labs include the following criteria:

a.	Replacement costs of equipment and materials are at least 50 percent higher than those needed for a general education class except for cooperative work-study labs.

b.	Students spend a minimum of 25 percent of the instructional time in "hands-on" activities.

c.	Students are enrolled in grades 9-12.

XX.55 = TWO HOUR LAB

A 5 as the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that students are taking the course as a two-hour lab class.

Vocational labs are state-approved vocational courses. Descriptions for vocational labs are found in FTE Program Codes and Weights. Vocational labs include the following criteria:

a.	Replacement costs of equipment and materials are at least 50 percent higher than those needed for a general education class except for cooperative work-study labs.

b.	Students spend a minimum of 25 percent of the instructional time in "hands-on" activities.

c.	Students are enrolled in grades 9-12.

XX.66 = THREE HOUR LAB

A 6 as the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that students are taking the course as a three-hour lab class.

Vocational labs are state-approved vocational courses. Descriptions for vocational labs are found in FTE Program Codes and Weights. Vocational labs include the following criteria:

a.	Replacement costs of equipment and materials are at least 50 percent higher than those needed for a general education class except for cooperative work-study labs.

b.	Students spend a minimum of 25 percent of the instructional time in "hands-on" activities.

c.	Students are enrolled in grades 9-12.

XX.77 = WORK-BASED LEARNING (WBL)

The system for assigning course numbers to students enrolled in Work-Based Learning is a unique coding process applicable to these numbers only. Other course numbering conventions, including the previous descriptions for coding of the first digit past the decimal in other course numbers, should not be applied to these work-based learning numbers. The following chart indicates the numbering convention that applies only to these work-based learning numbers. Criteria for placement of students in these courses may be found in the Standards and Guidelines available from the Career, Technical, and Agricultural Education Division.

A 7 as the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that students taking the course are participating in a work based learning program. State Board of Education Rule CAREER RELATED EDUCATION describes the requirements necessary for students to participate in the work-based learning program that include only students in grades 10-12.

Work-based programs may be designated in each CTAE pathway using the chart below. The five digits to the right of the decimal used in conjunction with the 7 will be applied to the two digit whole number that indicates the Program CIP code number. Using this system, student enrollments are possible in all CTAE pathways for up to 3 credits in each WBL placement. Following are two examples of course numbers utilizing this numbering system:

07.711500Business and Computer Science WBL Placement

(This number may be used for an 11^th grade student who is enrolled in or has completed the necessary course(s) in a Business and Computer Science pathway for a first time, 2 hour or 2 credit WBL placement).

21.721400Engineering and Technology WBL Placement

(This number may be used for an 12^th grade student who is enrolled in or has completed the necessary course in an Engineering and Technology pathway for the second year, 1 hour or 1 credit WBL placement).

CIP #	Program Area	Year	Semester	Hours
XX.711400	Concentration/Pathway Title	Year one	Semester one	One hour
XX.712400	Concentration/Pathway Title	Year one	Semester two	One hour
XX.711500	Concentration/Pathway Title	Year one	Semester one	Two hour

XX.721500	Concentration/Pathway Title	Year two	Semester one	Two hour
XX.722500	Concentration/Pathway Title	Year two	Semester two	Two hour
XX.721600	Concentration/Pathway Title	Year two	Semester one	Three hour
XX.722600	Concentration/Pathway Title	Year two	Semester two	Three hour

XX.88 = GENERAL EDUCATION COURSE IN A SPECIAL EDUCATION SETTING

An 8 as the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates the students are students whose Individualized Education Program (IEP) has placed them in a general education course but in a special education setting and are being taught by a certified special education teacher. Students in these classes are earning Carnegie unit credit.

Note: The number 90.XXXXXXX is used for any course determined by a student's Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and taught by a special education teacher. Carnegie unit credit is not given for those courses and the seven digits to the right of the decimal may be used as the school system wishes, such as, to identify semester, class period, teacher, etc.

XX.99 = GENERAL EDUCATION COURSE IN A GENERAL EDUCATION SETTING WITH SPECIAL EDUCATION SUPPORT

A 9 as the first numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates the students are students whose Individualized Education Program (IEP) has placed them in a general education course in a general education setting but with a specified amount and model of special education support listed on the IEP. Students are taught by a certified general education teacher and also receive the identified IEP support by the appropriately certified special education personnel. Students in these classes are earning Carnegie unit credit.

Note: In accordance with guidance issued by the United States Department of Education, Office for Civil Rights on October 17, 2008, transcripts may not contain information disclosing students' disabilities. Therefore, course numbers that identify students as students with disabilities must not be printed on transcripts. Course numbers including .8 and .9 or a 90 prefix should not appear on student transcripts.

Below is a summary for the first digit to the right of the decimal.

XX.00 = GENERAL

XX.11 = REMEDIAL

XX.22 = GIFTED

XX.33 = DISTANCE LEARNING

XX.44 = ONE HOUR LAB

XX.55 = TWO HOUR LAB

XX.66 = THREE HOUR LAB

XX.77 = WORK-BASED LEARNING

XX.88 = GENERAL EDUCATION COURSE IN A SPECIAL EDUCATION SETTING

XX.99 = GENERAL EDUCATION COURSE IN A GENERAL EDUCATION SETTING WITH SPECIAL EDUCATION SUPPORT

XX.XXXX2XX = LOCALLY FUNDED

A 2 as the fifth numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that the course is funded using local funds not state funds.

XX.XXXX3XX = CREDIT IN LIEU OF ENROLLMENT

A 3 as the fifth numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that students receive credit for a course in which they are not enrolled. Such instances would require a local policy that must be met in order for a student to receive credit without enrolling in the course. (For example, a student whose native language is not English could be given one or two Carnegie unit credits for foreign language if he/she can demonstrate proficiency in that language. A local system could use an end of Level I or II test or a proficiency test of its choice.)

XX.XXXX4XX = DUAL ENROLLMENT CREDIT

A 4 as the fifth numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that the students receive credit for the course while taking it for dual enrollment credit at a postsecondary public or private institution. Students participating in dual enrollment must adhere to the requirements found in State Board of Education Rule DUAL ENROLLMENT. Funding for dual enrollment course participation is provided through FTE, the Accel program, or the Hope Grant program. Refer to the Georgia Student Finance Commission web site for the Accel Program Course Directory for approved college courses, listed by college, for dual enrollment purposes and for additional information on funding and eligibility. Refer to the Career, Technical and Agricultural Education (CTAE) Dual Enrollment Course Directory for college courses approved for dual enrollment purposes located on the Georgia Department of Education CTAE web site.

Note: Each college determines availability of courses and acceptance of credit.

XX.XXXX5XX = JOINT ENROLLMENT CREDIT

A 5 as the fifth numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that the students are enrolled in postsecondary coursework with an eligible postsecondary institution while continuing to pursue his or her high school diploma, but the student's high school has not agreed to accept the postsecondary coursework as credit toward the student's high school graduation requirements. Students participating in joint enrollment must adhere to the requirements found in State Board of Education Rule Scheduling for Instruction and Rule Dual Enrollment. Students are responsible for funding Joint Enrollment participation.

XX.XXXX6XX = OUT-OF-STATE PUBLIC SCHOOL CREDIT

A 6 as the fifth numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that students receive credit for the course taken at a public school, accredited and nonaccredited, out-of-state. State Board of Education Rule Acceptance of Transfer Credit and/or Grades provides additional guidelines for assigning credit.

XX.XXXX7XX = IN-STATE AND OUT-OF-STATE PRIVATE SCHOOL CREDIT

A 7 as the fifth numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates that students receive credit for the course taken at a private school, accredited and nonaccredited, out-of-state. State Board of Education Rule Acceptance of Transfer Credit and/or Grades provides additional guidelines for assigning credit.

XX.XXXX8XX = OUT-OF-USA CREDIT

An 8 as the fifth numerical digit to the right of the decimal indicates students receive credit for the course taken at a school outside the United States of America. State Board of Education Rule Acceptance of Transfer Credit and/or Grades provides additional guidelines for assigning credit.

APPENDIX A

COURSE NUMBERING SYSTEM LEGEND

This appendix contains the subject listings of all state-funded courses earning Carnegie unit credit for the High School Diploma (HSD), the College Preparatory Endorsement (CPE), and the Vocational Endorsement (VE) programs of study. Courses are numbered to provide consistency in curriculum offerings, reporting and record keeping throughout the state.

The technology to support this system will allow correlation with the nation's Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) index. Major subject area designations such as General, Specific and Advanced correspond to designations used in the CIP. The designations DO NOT indicate programs of study or high school credentials.

The numbering system consists of nine numerical digits plus a decimal. The location of the decimal is after the first two numerical digits, with seven numerical digits to the right of the decimal.

FOREIGN LANGUAGES.

Two Carnegie units of the same foreign language shall be required for the College Preparatory Endorsement (CPE) program of study in grades 9-12. Students whose native language is not English may be considered to have met the foreign language requirement by exercising the credit in lieu of enrollment option if they are proficient in their native language. A formal examination is not necessary if other evidence of proficiency is available. Any course or combination of courses listed below may be selected to earn Carnegie unit credit to satisfy the requirements in Foreign Language for Core Area of Study VI Computer Technology and/or Fine Arts and/or Vocational Education and/or Junior ROTC and/or Foreign Language for the High School Diploma (HSD), the College Preparatory Endorsement (CPE) and/or the Vocational Endorsement (VE) programs of study.

Any of the courses may be used to satisfy the elective unit requirements.

For a student who is hearing impaired, American Sign Language may be taken as an elective or as a core course to fulfill the requirements of the college preparatory seal of endorsement. If American Sign Language is to be used to fulfill the college preparatory requirement of two years of the same foreign language, adherence to the requirements in the following paragraph is required.

For the purpose of fulfilling the foreign language requirement for a college preparatory seal of endorsement, a demonstrated proficiency in American Sign Language shall be accepted as a foreign language if it is determined that a deaf student has a hearing loss which significantly impacts upon a student's ability to learn a foreign language. The Individualized Education Program (IEP) Committee shall determine if American Sign Language is to be substituted for the foreign language requirement. The IEP Committee shall state in the Individual Education Program that American Sign Language is substituting for the foreign language and that two years of the American Sign Language must be taken to complete the requirement.

For students who are not hearing impaired, American Sign Language may be taken for one unit of elective credit or for the third unit of foreign language credit.

FOREIGN LANGUAGES.

Two Carnegie units of the same foreign language shall be required for the College Preparatory (CP) program of study in grades 9-12. Students whose native language is not English may be considered to have met the foreign language requirement by exercising the credit in lieu of enrollment option if they are proficient in their native language. A formal examination is not necessary if other evidence of proficiency is available. Any course or combination of courses listed below may be selected to earn Carnegie unit credit to satisfy the requirements in foreign language for Core Area of Study VI: Computer Technology and/or Fine Arts and/or Vocational Education and/or Junior ROTC and/or Foreign Language for the College Preparatory (CP) and/or the Vocational Endorsement (V) programs of study.

Any of the courses may be used to satisfy the elective unit requirements.

For a student who is hearing impaired, American Sign Language may be taken as an elective or as a core course to fulfill the requirements of the College Preparatory Diploma. If American Sign Language is to be used to fulfill the college preparatory requirement of two years of the same foreign language, adherence to the requirements in the following paragraph is required.

For the purpose of fulfilling the foreign language requirement for a College Preparatory Diploma, a demonstrated proficiency in American Sign Language shall be accepted as a foreign language if it is determined that a deaf student has a hearing loss which significantly impacts upon a student's ability to learn a foreign language. The Individualized Education Program (IEP) Committee shall determine if American Sign Language is to be substituted for the foreign language requirement. The IEP Committee shall state in the Individual Education Program that American Sign Language is substituting for the foreign language and that two years of the American Sign Language must be taken to complete the requirement.

For students who are not hearing impaired, American Sign Language may be taken for one unit of elective credit or for the third unit of foreign language credit.
