Planning Workshop

From Karen Stanish, (Mathematics):

The College Planning Council is sponsoring a pre-proposal workshop on Friday, October 2, from 8:30 to 11 a.m. in the Student Center Mountain View Room. If you are planning to submit an initiative through the planning process this year, this is an opportunity to drop in and receive proposal writing or budget assistance prior to submission and to connect with potential collaborators.

Members of the Planning Council, College Information Technology Council, Human Resources Policy Advisory Board, Facilities Planning Advisory Council, and Budget and Resources Council will be present to give you feedback or assistance on items in the proposal form, such as writing a clear narrative, selecting a strategic goal, creating a timeline, and forming an assessment plan. Staff from the Business Office and Human Resources will be present to help you create a realistic budget.

The planning process offers a way to communicate your ideas on how you can contribute to the College’s mission, values, and planning goals and how to gain College approval (and, where necessary, funding and staff support) for implementation. To be considered during this year’s planning process, initiatives must be received by your director or dean on Friday, October 30, 2009, or to your principal administrator on Friday, November 6, 2009.

Feel free to contact the Planning Council co-chairs, Jay Kahn and Karen Stanish, if you have any questions. You can also view planning process information over the web.
