META Tutorials

Welcome to Acadea (formerly known as CurriQunet META), Chaffey College’s curriculum management system (CMS)! We are here to help you as you navigate Acadea/META. Video tutorials have been made to guide you through course and program development. Each section/page on the development side of Acadea/META has its own video tutorial listed in the CMS and is also linked below. In addition to showing users how to navigate the pages in Acadea/META, the tutorials also provide explanations of the fields and expectations of content for those fields.

PLEASE NOTE: There may be edits/revisions to content or fields on some pages in which a new video may not be created. A new video will be made if any edits/revisions substantially change the functionality of each page.
