Compliance /Transcript tag

Throughout PEMS transcript tag and compliance tag are the same table. Curriculum or Moodle Courses are 'tagged' with these notes which appear on the student's transcript. These notes demonstrate to colleges and organizations the the courses taken were approved by the various organizations. Because a course must be approved before getting this 'tag', they are called compliance tags. Because they appear on the transcript, in various places they are called 'transcript' tags.

Data Relationships

Curriculum may be tagged with multiple compliance tags. When the curriculum is tagged, this information flows to the student's Transcript through the related enrollment record.

In the context of plans, transcript tags are called compliance tags. If a plan meets all curriculum and sequence requirements, then the entire plan may be compliance and 'earn the tag'

Weight GPA - based on the agency that has approved the curriculum, higher than normal GPA points may be awarded to the student. If the tag confers the option to increase the GPA of the grade, then this field is selected to be yes. AP stands for Advanced Placement, and courses with this note must have been fully approved by tan organization called "college board.' For example, if the course is and AP course, then the transcript says 'AP' and instead of 4.0 point for an A, the student receives a 5.0.
