Steps for Online Registration

Steps for Registering Online

Step 1 – Select courses 

First  explore the courses offered and make your tentative selections in order of preference.  TSO has posted two resources to help you plan: a listing of Fall 2018  courses by date and time and the Instructor Biographies.   Or you may go to the Bellevue College Continuing Education Course Catalog pictured below.
Note:  The pages below are taken from previous terms, but the process remains the same. 

 

Spring 2017 course catalog

When you click on a category of interest (by selecting a category or day of the week ), you will see the list of courses in that grouping.   For instance, if you click on Thursdays, you will see the following:

  Then click on one of the courses to see the course description . . . . .

 

 and information about the instructor . . .

Step 2 – Check to see if courses of your choice are available

After identifying courses that you want to take, you should check to see if the course(s) is full.  If the course is full it will indicate “Add to Wait list” in the lower left hand section of the registration box. See below.

If the course is available, the registration box will say “Add to cart”.  Clicking in the space (shown in blue) to the right of “Add to cart” will bring up a box showing the number of remaining seats.

Step 3 – Registration  (signing in to your account)

First you need to sign into your account or “Create new account” if you don’t already have one. To do that, click where it says “Sign in” in the upper right section of the catalog screen.  Then you will see the screen shown below. Either “Sign in to existing account” or “Create new account”.Screenshot (185)

Step 4 –  Continuing the registration process 

Return now to the class for which you wish to register, and click on “Add to Cart.”  You will go to the “Shopping Cart”  page. There you will be asked to indicate how you heard about TELOS (see lower right).

Step 5 – Starting the Check Out procedure

As you begin the “Check Out’ process you will see a box on the upper right of each page indicating the progress you are making.

TSO Student Organization’s Activities and Plans

In the meeting, Jerry led the discussion about the TSO Student Organization’s activities and future plans. TELOS had 20 classes in the winter quarter, with 5 being canceled, and 325 registrations. However, there was a question about the organization’s impact and whether it should continue. The group also discussed the upcoming spring quarter, with 16 classes planned for spring quarter. Fewer classes and registrations expected in summer. The possibility of adding another session of the generative AI for daily life class was also discussed. But George Liu now has a full time job and is not teaching at this time.

As always thanks go to Donna for collecting and sharing the TELOS class and registration information.

Esteban’s Role and Program Updates

Jerry, Ted, and Phil discussed their meeting with Esteban Maldonado, the new Director of Continuing Education and IBIT. Esteban was described as honest, earnest, and interested in their work. Phil suggested asking Esteban for an update on the college’s pulse regarding their program in their next meeting. Ted emphasized the need for Esteban to focus on their mission and not just be a nice face. Jerry noted that Esteban took over Liz Hollerman’s responsibilities, including the IBIT program, and expressed satisfaction with Esteban’s support for their program. The team agreed to send a note to Esteban, asking about the decrease in course numbers and what they can expect in the future.

Advertising and Instructor Recruitment Discussion

The team discussed the use of funds for advertising and instructor recruitment. They considered donating remaining funds in the TSO Student account with Student Programs to the foundation for more advertising and instructor recruitment. The team also discussed the process of hiring instructors as contractors, which simplifies the hiring process. The treasurer’s report showed that no money had been spent since the last meeting, leaving around $5,000 in the TSO student account. The team also discussed the potential for cross-advertising between Edmonds Creative Research Institute and Bellevue College.

Council Considers Disbanding and Storage

The council discusses the possibility of disbanding and agrees to make a decision at their next meeting on May 28th. They consider holding a final general meeting if they decide to disband. Jerry mentions the need for someone to update the website with meeting minutes, suggesting they might recruit a student for this task. The group also discusses the storage booth they have on campus, questioning its usefulness and contents. No new business is brought up, and the meeting is adjourned.
