Expectations
   
   
  Close collaboration between the WSU Concurrent Enrollment office, the WSU participating academic departments and the partnering educational sites is necessary to the success of this program. Credit earned for concurrent participation must reflect student experience and performance standards equivalent to those found on the WSU campus. Strategies for assuring that these standards are in fact realized at the participating sites must be implemented and can best be undertaken by individuals who represent the perspective of each participating academic department.
