About the COE’s CSU and UC Baccalaureate Program Tool:
2
This CSU and UC Baccalaureate Program Tool (CSU/UC Tool) was created by the Orange County Center of Excellence for Labor Market Research (COE) and intended for use by California Community College stakeholders as they develop potential community college-issued baccalaureate degree programs per Assembly Bill 927 which amended Education Code Section 78042 to allow the expansion of the community college baccalaureate pilot.
3
The pertinent revised Ed Code Section 78042 (d) (1-3) states:
4
(d) A district’s baccalaureate degree program shall be subject to the following limitations:
5
 (1) A district shall identify and document unmet workforce needs in the subject area of the baccalaureate degree to be offered and offer a baccalaureate degree at a campus in a subject area with unmet workforce needs in the local community or region of the district.
6
 (2) A baccalaureate degree program shall not offer a baccalaureate degree program or program curricula already offered by the California State University or the University of California.
7
 (3) A district shall have the expertise, resources, and student interest to offer a quality baccalaureate degree in the chosen field of study.
8
This CSU/UC Tool includes all available data on current California State University (CSU) and University of California (UC) baccalaureate degree programs organized by Classification of Instructional (CIP) code throughout the state.

Data Considerations
11
The CSU and UC Baccalaureate Program Tool identifies the current baccalaureate programs offered at CSU and UC. However, it does not include program curricula (i.e. courses) offered in each program. AB 927 states that community college baccalaureate degree programs cannot offer program curricula offered by CSU or UC. Community colleges will have to do further investigating to determine if a CSU or UC offers similar program curricula.
12
Therefore, after you use the CSU/UC Tool, you will need to use an internet browser to search the university-specific courses for the programs that show up in the tool in order to determine whether or not curriculum is being offered for your proposed baccalaureate program.
13
For example, though no CSU or UC offers a Forensic Accounting program, a community college could not offer a Forensic Accounting baccalaureate degree because at least three CSUs offer Forensic Accounting as an elective course within their existing accounting programs: CSU East Bay, CSU Fullerton, and CSU Los Angeles.

TOP-CIP Crosswalk Worksheet
15
The TOP-CIP Crosswalk can be used to identify the CIP code(s) that correspond to your potential program’s TOP code. You can scroll through the lists, use the blue slicers to the right of the actual list of TOP codes and CIP codes, or use the filters at the top of each column. If you use the slicers to click on your TOP code, the table will then automatically update and you will see the related CIP codes. Refer to the Tool Navigation Instructions below for step-by-step directions.
16
If you already know the CIP code you plan to use for your potential program, you can skip this step and go directly to the CSU/UC Tool.
