The process for reviewing and determining equivalency is led by the Equivalency Committee whose recommendations are reviewed/approved by the Senate.
This training video by Jeff Ihara offers a helpful, humorous, and detailed overview of MiraCosta’s process for determining equivalency and addresses issues that the Academic Senate will deliberate.
For more information on the equivalency process, please review the Minimum Qualifications, Equivalencies and Eminence slide deck shared with MiraCosta Equivalency Committee members by ASCCC resource specialists in March of 2025.
Please also access this Training on Equivalency by ASCCC Vice President Cheryl Achenbach (beginning at 01:26:16) presented to the Senate in September of 2022.
