Effective January 26, 2013, the Board of Governors approved new regulations governing student repetition and courses designated as repeatable. The following Title 5 sections were affected:
§ 55000. Definitions.
§ 55023. Academic Record Symbols and Grade Point Average.
§ 55040. District Policy for Course Repetition.
§ 55041. Repeatable Courses.
§ 55043. Course Repetition Due to Significant Lapse of Time.

In a collaborative effort, the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges, the Chancellor’s Office, and the System Advisory Committee on Curriculum (SACC) developed a number of resources to assist colleges in implementing the new regulations. The following are some resources that may be particularly useful:
- Credit Course Repetition Guidelines
