>> GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYONE AND WELCOME TO OUR ACADEMIC TOWN HALL WITH THREE OF OUR
[Academics Town Hall: Faculty Supervision and Scheduling]
VICE PROVOSTS.OUR TOPIC TODAY IS GOING TO BE DISCUSSION AROUND THE DESIGN OF THE NEW ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE OF ACADEMICS WITH A SPECIFIC FOCUS ON FACULTY SUPERVISION AND THE NEW SCHEDUELING TEAM.
BUT BEFORE WE BEGIN I WANT TO HAND THINGS OFF TO OUR PROVOST FOR HER OPENING REMARKS.
>> THANKS EVERYONE FOR JOINING THE TOWN HALL TODAY.
I'M EXCITED FOR YOU TO HEAR MORE ABOUT THE ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE THAT ACADEMIC AFFAIRS ADOPTED AT DALLAS COLLEGE.
YOUR VICE PROVOST SPENT A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TIME ENVISIONING ON THEIR OWN AND WITH COLLEGUES FROM THE REST OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS, WORK FORCE AND ADVANCEMENT AND STUDENT SUCCESS TO ENSURE WE ALIGN ALL OF OUR STRUCTURES TO BEST SUPPORT OUR STUDENT NEEDS.
LAST WEEK WE POSTED POSITIONS FOR THE DEAN OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS AND FOR DEPARTMENT CHAIRS FOR VARIOUS DISAPLINES.
TODAY'S SESSION WILL PROVIDE MORE DETAILS ON THOSE ROLES WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE AT DALLAS COLLEGE.
JUST IN TERMS OF SELECTING WHO WILL OCCUPY THESE POSITIONS I WANT TO ENSURE THAT YOU FULL TIME FACULTY WILL BE ENGAGED IN THE PROCESS FACULTY WILL BE ESSENTIAL TO THE SELECTION PROCESS FOR THESE NEW ACADEMIC LEADERS.
SINCE DALLAS COLLEGE IS ONLY FOUR MONTHS OLD, IT IS NECESSARY TO ALIGN OUR HIRING PRACTICES WITH OUR NEW ORGANIZATION AFTER STRUCTURE.
AS WE BEGIN TO FORM SEARCH COMMITTEES KNOW THAT FACULTY WILL BE ENGAGED BASED UPON THEIR SCHOOL AFFILIATION NOT THEIR CAMPUS IT IS CRITICAL THAT WE BECOME FOCUSED ON OUR ALIGNMENT BY SCHOOL AND DISCIPLINE NOT CAMPUS LOCATION.
TO THAT END THERE WILL BE SEVEN SEARCH COMMITTEES ONE FOR EACH SCHOOL.
THEY WILL BE COMPRISED OF TWO TO FOUR FACULTY MEMBERS PER SCHOOL AND AN EQUAL NUMBER OF STAFF AND ADMINISTRATION.
THESE CANDIDATES WILL EXPRESS AND RECOMMEND CANDIDATES FOR THE VICE PROVOST CONSIDERATION.
WE ARE EXCITED THAT FACULTY WILL HAVE A MEANINGFUL VOICE IN THIS PROCESS.
YOUR VOICE PROVOST WILL BE REACHING OUT TO YOU SHORTLY ABOUT HOW YOU CAN GET INVOLVED.
IN THE MEANTIME THIS TOWNHALL WILL ADDRESS QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE ABOUT THE NEW STRUCTURE.
THANK YOU ALL FOR JOINING AND I SAY IT AGAIN THAT I HAVE TO HOP OFF BY FOUR THIRTY FOR ANOTHER MEETING.
>> THANK YOU DR. FLOYD FOR GETTING US STARTED TODAY.
WE'RE GOING TO GO SPEND THE BUGGING OF OUR TIME ANSWERING QUESTIONS.
NOW WHEN HER EMAILS INCLUDED A LINK WITH QUESTIONS THAT WE'RE GOING TO GO ADDRESS TODAY.
ALL FACULTY WHO HAD QUESTIONS WERE GIVEN AN OPPORTUNITY TO SUBMIT QUESTIONS FOR SEVERAL DAYS.
WE HAVE COLLECT HE'S THOSE QUESTIONS AND WE'RE GOING TO GO ADDRESS THE VAST MAJORITY
OF THEM FOR THE TOWNHALL I'M ABOUT TO TURN IT OVER TO RAGU FOR A BRIEF -- >> THANKS ROBERT.
I WANT TO START BY SHARING SOME CONTACT OBJECT NEW FACULTY STRUCTURE.
WE'RE EXTREMELY EXCITED TO INTRODUCE THE CHAIR POSITION.
A DEPARTMENT CHAIR POSITION IS THE POSITION THAT IS DEDICATED EXCLUSIVELY TO FACULTY.
DEPARTMENT CHAIRS WILL PLAY A VERY VITAL ROLE WITHIN THE SCHOOL.
THEY WILL EVALUATE THE FACULTY AND ASSIGN THE FACULTY TO THE COURSES IN THE SCHEDULE AND THEY WILL ALSO PROVIDE A MENTOR AND COACHING ROLE.
THEY WILL BE THE ONLY POSITION THAT SUPERVISING FACULTY AND WE WILL NO LONGER HAVE FACULTY SUPERVISING FACULTY.
IT THIS DOES NOT RULE OUT THE POSSIBILITY OF REASSIGNED TIME.
IT WILL BE ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS AND THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT IT WILL BE GIVEN TOWARD FACULTY SUPERVISION OR CREATION OF SCHEDULE AND WE WILL GO THROUGH THIS SHORTLY AND KNOW THAT DEPARTMENT CHAIRS WILL -- AND IDEALLY -- NOW YOU'LL SEE THAT THE DEPARTMENT CHAIRS ACTUALLY REPORT TO THE DEAN OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS WHO THEN
[00:05:06]
REPORT TO THE VICE PROVOST OF THE RELEVANT SCHOOL.THE DEAN OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS IS -- AND WILL NOT DIRECTLY SUPERVISE ANY FACULTY.
THE DEAN'S ROLE IS MORE ORIENTED TOWARD FURTHERING THEIR PROGRAMS PRIORITY AND THEY SUPPORT THE VICE PROVOST IN COORDINATING WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS WITHIN THE DALLAS COLLEGE EXAMPLE STUDENT SUCCESS WORKFORCE AND ALSO INTERFACING THE COMMUNITY.
IN ADDITION TO MANAGING THE DEPARTMENT CHAIRS THEY WILL OVERSEE GALLERIES AND -- SPECIFICS TO THE DISCIPLINES I'VE SPOKEN ENOUGH I'LL TURN IT OVER TO ANITA FOR SCHEDULING CHANGES.
THE SECOND CHANGE IS THE CREATION OF A SINGLE SCHEDULING TEAM AND IT'S GOING TO BE SITTING UNDER THE ACADEMIC SERVICES AND IT IS HEADED UP BY NICOLE LEVINE AND SHE WILL HAVE A REPRESENTATIVE FROM EACH SCHOOL THAT WILL HAVE PEOPLE WHO ARE VERY FAMILIAR WITH THE NUANCES AND THE TIMES OF CLASSES AN COURSES THAT WE TEACH.
EACH WILL HAVE THREE REPRESENTS AND THE TEAM WILL ALSO HAVE A TOOL A SURVEY THAT THEY WILL SEND OUT AND FACULTY CAN EXPRESS THEY ARE PREFERENCES EACH SEMESTER.
DEPARTMENT CHAIRS WILL BOTH FINALIZE THE SCHEDULE AND ASSIGN FACULTY TO THE COMPLETED SCHEDULE AND FACULTY WILL HAVE INPUT TO THE SCHEDULE.
WELL, LET'S TURN NOW TO THE QUESTION THAT WE RECEIVED FROM FACULTY.
WE'RE GOING TO GO START WITH SCHEDULING AND THEN WE'LL MOVE ON TO DEANS AND DEPARTMENT CHAIRS.
DR. CHAN, WE RECEIVED A QUESTION ABOUT HOW FACULTY WILL SHARE THEIR PREFERENCES IN THE FUTURE.
WILL THEY NEED TO SHARE THAT WITH THE TEAM OR BASED ON CLASSES THAT THEY'VE TAUGHT PREVIOUSLY.
>> I WAS JUST SAYING THAT I KNOW THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THAT I'M MEETING OR VIRTUALLY MEETING WITH MANY OF YOU.
SO I JUST WANTED TO EXPRESS MY EXCITEMENT AND HONOR JOINING DALLAS COLLEGE DURING THIS TRANSFORMATION THAT'S UNDER WAY AND LEADING THE SCHOOL OF MANUFACTURING AND INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGY.
SO BACK TO THE QUESTION REGARDING FACULTY FOR SCHEDULING.
SOME OF YOU PARTICIPATED IN THE SCHEDULING PILOTS IN A FEW OF THE SCHOOLS AND SO WE WILL FOLLOW A SIMILAR PROCESS.
SO PRIOR TO EACH SEMESTER, FACULTY WILL BE ABLE TO SUBMIT THEIR TEACHING PREFERENCES VIA THAT PREFERENCES SURVEY THAT DR. FLINT MENTIONED ON THAT FORM YOU WILL BE ABLE TO INDICATE YOUR PRESENCES.
SO WHETHER FACE-TO-FACE, HYBRID, ONLINE AND ALL THAT DATE YOU WILL BE COLLECTED AND SHARED WITH DEPARTMENT CHAIRS AN DEANS AND THEY'LL WORK WITH THE TEAM TO CREATE THE OPTIMAL SCHEDULE.
NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT THE COURSES THAT ARE GOING TO BE OFFERED AND ONE FACULTY WANTS TO KNOW WHERE THE FACULTY BE ABE TO OFFER COURSES OUTSIDE THAT OF THE -- BUT A FACULTY MEMBERS WANTED TO OFFER IT ANY WAY, WILL THAT BE ALLOWED.
>> WELL, THE ANSWER IS REALLY IT DEPENDS.
WE INTEND TO OVER COURSES-BASED ON STUDENT DEMAND.
THE SCHEDULING TEAM WILL BE LOOKING AT SEVERAL SOURCES OF DATA TO DETERMINE STUDENT DEMAND AND THESE INCLUDE STUDENT SURVEYS AND STUDENT POPULATION ANALYSIS AND HISTORIC ENROLLMENT TRENDS.
SO IF THE PROPOSED COURSE LIKE THE COURSE THAW MENTIONED IS SHOWN TO BE IN DEMAND LIKE THOSE DATA THEN THERE WILL BE APPROPRIATE TIMED TO OFFER THAT COURSE AND I DO WANT TO EMPHASIS THAT DURING THE SCHEDULING PROCESS WILL THERE WILL BE OPPORTUNITIES TO ENGAGE FACULTY DEPARTMENT CHAIRS AN DEANS AND THAT INPUT WILL BE CRITICAL TO CREATING A SCHEDULE THAT MEETS OUR STUDENTÂS NEEDS.
>> THANKS FOR EXPLAINING THAT A LITTLE BETTER.
LET'S SAY THAT WE HAVE A STUDENT ISSUE THAT ARRIVES.
[00:10:01]
THIS COULD BE SOMETHING LIKE SUBSTITUTING A COURSE OR A SECTION IS OVER LOADED ADD THEY WANT TO DROP A CLASS THAT'S LINKED TO ANOTHER CLASS.WHO IS GOING DO MANAGE THAT PROCESS.
CONSISTENT WITH OUR APPROACH -- ALL MATTERED RELATED TO STUDENTS SCHEDULING WILL BE DEALT WITH IN WAYS THAT ARE EQUITABLE AND THAT ENSURE OUR STUDENTS ARE PLACED IN THE BEST POSITION TO BE SUCCESSFUL.
THE STUDENT CENTRIC IS VERY IMPORTANT IN ADDRESSING CONCERNS LIKE THAT.
SO ALL THE STUDENT RELATED ISSUES WITH LIFE WITHIN THE STUDENT SUCCESS DEPARTMENT LIKE -- THE SPECIFIC ADVISING ACADEMIC ADVISING TEAMS TO HAVE BEEN CREATED ACROSS DALLAS COLLEGE TO ALIGN WITH OUR GUIDED PATHWAYS WHICH ARE ALSO ALIGNED WITH EACH OF OUR NEW SCHOOL.
LIKE THE SCHOOL OF EDUCATION THE SCHOOL OF HEALTH SCIENCES AND THESE INDIVIDUAL WILL COORDINATE ALL ADVISING AND WORK WITH THE NEW SCHEDULING TEAM TO ENSURE THAT STUDENT SPECIFIC RELATED COURSE ISSUES ARE MANAGED.
SCHEDULING RELATED REQUESTS APPLIED BY FACULTY SHOULD BE PASSED ALONG TO THE TEAM AND THEY'LL HAVE A SPECIFIC TEAM ASSIGNED TO EACH THE SCHOOLS.
THE SCHEDULING TEAM WILL MANAGE OVERVIEW AND IMPLEMENT THE ACTUAL SCHEDULING REQUESTS.
THOUGH THE ENROLLMENT MONITORING PROCESS DEVELOPED BY THE TEAM COURSES WILL BE MINIMIZED AND THE PROCESS WILL ALSO ENSURE THE NECESSARY ACTIONS WHEN A STUDENT INTENDED TO ADD OR DROP A COURSE OR CHANGE A COURSE FROM ONE COURSE TO ANOTHER.
THE QUESTION WILL [INAUDIBLE] NEW DALLAS AND WE WILL PROVIDE STUDENTS ADVICE THROUGH THE REGULAR OFFICE OURS AND THEY WILL REFER STUDENTS TO THE ADVISORS FOR SUPPORT WHEN NEEDS.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SINCE WE'VE GOT THREE OF YOU TODAY LET'S TAKES A MOMENT TO SEE WHOO DEPARTMENT CHAIRS WILL BE INVOLVED IN EACH OF YOUR SCHOOLS.
SO DR. CHAN, DO YOU WANT TO START.
>> SURE AND I SENT THIS VIA EMAIL BUT I'LL JUST REITERATE AND -- AND ANOTHER CHAIR WILL RECEIVE LOGISTICS AND SUPPLY CHAIN AND WELL AS GIS SURVEYING AND K CAD AND THE SEC DEAN WILL ALSO OVERVIEW TWO DEPARTMENT CHAIRS ONE CHAIR THAT'S OVER CONSTRUCTION HVAC AND WELDING AND NORTH CHAIR IS OVER AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY.
>> MOVING ON TO THE SCHOOL OF HEALTH SCIENCES THE DEAN IS GOING TO OVERSEE THREE DEPARTMENT CHAIRS PRIMARILY FOCUSING ON NURSING.
THE DEAN OF HEALTH OCCUPATIONS -- PHYSICAL HEALTH PE.
KINESIOLOGY AND HEALTH OCCUPATIONS.
THESE WILL ALSO BE SOUP ADVISED BY THESE CHANGES.
>> FOR SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY MATH AROUND SCIENCES.
WE HAVE FOUR DEANS OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS.
AND THE FIRST IS OVERSEEING THE INFORMATION SYSTEMS DEPARTMENT AND WE WILL HAVE THREE DEPARTMENT CHAIRS FOCUSED ON THESE THREE TOPICS.
ENGINEERING AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS AND THESE ARE THE THREE ASSIGNMENTS FOR OUR DEPARTMENT CHAIR BUT THERE WILL BE A SITUATION WHERE THE DEPARTMENT CHAIR WILL OVERSEE ANOTHER FACULTY FROM OTHER DISCIPLINE FOR EQUITY PURPOSES.
SECOND THE KEEN OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS IS GOING TO BE -- OVERSEEING THE PHYSICS CHEMISTRY AND ENVIRONMENT GEOLOGY AND AGRICULTURE AND THE THIRD ACADEMIC AFFAIRS DEAN IS OVERSEEING THE BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES AND THE DEAN OF MATHEMATICS WILL
OVER SUE FOUR DEPARTMENT CHAIRS AND -- >> PERFECT.
LET'S TALK ABOUT ADJUNCT FOR JUST A MOMENT.
AND WHILE THESE DEPARTMENT CHAIRS OVER SUE THE ADJUNCTS AS WELL AS THE FULL-TIME
[00:15:08]
FACULTY.>> THANK YOU ROBERT AND COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE DEPARTMENT CHAIRS AND ADJUNCT FACULTY WILL BE AN ONGOING THING SO THAT IT KEEPS EVERYBODY IN THE LOOP.
ADJUNCT FACULTY SHOULD ALSO BE IN CONTACT ACCOUNT DEPARTMENT CHAIR WITH ANY ISSUES RELATED TO INSTRUCTION.
SO WHAT IF ONE OF OUR ADJUNCT FACULTY MEMBERS WANTED TO APPLY FOR A FULL-TIME POSITION AS WE'RE BUILDING THIS STRUCTURE.
>> ADJUNCTS HAVE ALWAYS PROVIDING A NECESSARY SERVICE FOR DALLAS COLLEGE AND WE'VE HIRED A NUMBER OVER THE YEARS INTO OUR FULL-TIME RANKS.
HOWEVER THEY MUST MEET THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE FULL-TIME FACULTY POSITION AND THEY MUST APPLY ANYTIME THERE IS A POSTED VACANCY.
NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT CHAIR ROLE.
COULD ONE OF YOU SPEAK TO THE COMPENSATION OF THE DEPARTMENT CHAIR WHAT BAND THAT'S IN FOR THE ROLE AND THAT SORT OF THING.
DR. CHAN, DO YOU WANT TO TAKE THIS ONE.
THE COMPENSATION BAND FOR THE DEPARTMENT CHAIR IS TWENTY SEVENTY-FIVE TO ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND.
AND THAT JOB POSTING WAS SHARED LAST FROM -- WILL CLOSED BY THE END OF THE DAY TOMORROW OCTOBER THIRTY AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT IF YOU'RE INTERESTED YOU SUBMIT AN APPLICATION.
>> DR. CHAN WHILE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE COMPENSATION WILL THESE DEPARTMENT CHAIRS CONTINUE TO GET A MARKET DISPARITY STIPEND LIKE THEY HAVE IN THE PAST AND THEY SAID THEY MAY TEACH UP TO TWO SESSIONS FOR EXTRA SERVICE.
ARE THEY GOING TO BE COMPENSATED FOR THAT.
SO ONE THICK I WANT TO EMPHASIZE AND I WANT EVERYONE TO REMEMBER IS THAT THE DEPARTMENT CHAIR ROLE IS A NEW ONE AT CALLAS COLLEGE AND WITH THAT COMES UNIQUE RESPONSIBILITIES.
SO THERE WILL BE NO MARKET DISPARITIES ATTACHED TO THE DEPARTMENT CHAIR POSITION.
DEPARTMENT CHAIRS WILL BE PERMITTED TO MOS ONE SECTION DURING THE WORK HOURS AND SO THAT SECTION THAT THEY TEACH WILL NOT RECEIVE ANY EXTRA SERVICE, BUT AS THE QUESTION REFERRED TO TEACHING OUTSIDE OF BUSINESS HOURS, THE DEPARTMENT CHAIRS WILL BE ABLE TO TEACH UP TO TWO SECTIONS IN THE FALL AND THE SPRING SEMESTER AND THOSE THAT ARE TAUGHT OUTSIDE THE BUSINESS HOURS, THEY WILL RECEIVE EXTRA SERVICE FOR TEACHING THOSE COURSES.
SO WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THE BROADER SCHOOL STRUCTURE ON THIS QUESTION.
BUT LET'S GO BACK TO OUR CAMPUS.
IF STUDENTS ARE FACULTY NEED HELP ARE THERE GOING TO BE PEOPLE WITHIN THE CAMPUS TO HELP WITH THAT.
>> YES, I CAN ANSWER THAT AS WELL.
SO SUPPORT STAFF WILL BE PRESENT AT EACH CAMPUS AND WE'RE STILL FIGURING OUT THE EXACT CAPACITY AS WHICH THESE OFFICERS WILL BE STAFFED SO THE DEAN OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS AND THE DEPARTMENT CHAIR WILL HAVE THEIR OFFICES AT THE CAMPUS AND WILL HAVE LOCAL SUPPORT.
THE EXACT DISTRIBUTION AND PLACEMENT OF THE STAFF POSITIONS AT THE SCHOOL LEVEL ARE STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS AND WE WILL SHARE THAT ONCE THINGS ARE FINALIZE.
>> PERFECT THANK YOU AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO GETTING AN UPDATE ON THAT IN THE FUTURE.
SO IN THE RARE INSTANCE THAT WE HAVE A STUDENT COMPLAINT OR -- WHERE IN THE STRUCTURE ARE THOSE THINGS GOING TO BE HANDLED.
>> ROBERT, I'D LIKE TO TAKE THAT.
>> JUST TO CONTINUE WHAT DR. CHAN WAS MENTIONING.
WE WILL HAVE A PRESIDENT ANSWER OF SUPPORT STAFF ON CAMPUS AND THAT WILL BE WHERE THE STUDENTS WILL REACH OUT TO SUBMIT A COMPLAINT A FORMAL COMPLAINT.
BUT IN A NORMAL SITUATION COMPARED WITH WHAT WE ARE ACTUALLY FOLLOWING IN THE PAST.
WE'RE STILL FINALIZING THE PROCESS BUT IN THE SPIRIT OF ENSURING EQUITABILITY AND THIS PROCESS WILL NEED TO INVOLVE THE DEAN OF ORGANIZATION TO ENSURE THAT STUDENTS COMPLAINTS ARE NOT BEING HANDLED IN A SILO.
THAT IS THE FOCUS OF MOVING FORWARD IN THIS ORGANIZATION WITH A SCHOOL MODEL.
IF THE COMPLAINT IS OF AN ACADEMIC NATURE THE PROCESS WILL BE THE FOLLOWING.
[00:20:07]
THE RELEVANT STRUCTURE IS GOING TO BE CONDUCTED BY THE STUDENT WITH THE -- THAT'S THE FIRST ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE.SO IF THE ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED BETWEEN THE STUDENT AND THE INSTRUCTOR, IT'S THEN THE LIKELIHOOD IS WE WANT TO ESCALATE IT TO THE DEPARTMENT CHAIR OF THAT SPECIFIC DISCIPLINE.
SO IF THE STUDENT IS NOT SATISFIED WITH THE RESULT PROPOSED BY THE DEPARTMENT CHAIR, THE STUDENT IS ALWAYS AT POSSIBLE LIBERTY TO ACTUALLY WANT TO ESCALATE THE SITUATION TO THE DEAN LEVEL.
SO THE RESPECTIVE DEAN IS GOING TO BE INVOLVED.
AND IF THE STUDENT IS ACTUALLY STILL NOT SATISFIED WITH THE RESOLUTION.
THE STUDENT CAN ALWAYS MOVE UP THE CASE TO A VICE PROVOST.
SO THEN THE VICE PROVOST GETS A CHANCE TO LOOK INTO THE STUDENT'S CONCERN BUT THE DECISION OF THE VICE PROVOST WILL BE FINAL AND WE WILL BE SENDING OUT MORE DETAILS ABOUT THAT PROCESS.
WE ALSO GOT QUESTIONS ABOUT CONTINUING EDUCATION AND -- DR. CHAN.
>> YES, SO I WANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT CONTINUING EDUCATION IS A SIGNIFICANT ESSENTIAL PART OF DALLAS COLLEGE AND WE ARE PRIORITIZING IN THIS DESIGN PHASE.
THIS NEXT PHASE OF OUR DESIGN.
IT IS STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS THOUGH AND THE POSITIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THAT ARE STILL BEING CONFIRMED, BUT I CAN SHARE WITH YOU A FEW PIECES OF THE COLLABORATIVE APPROACH.
FIRST THE CE FACULTY WILL BE SUPERVISED BY DEPARTMENT CHAIRS WITHIN THE SCHOOL AND WILL CONTINUE TO TEACH CE COURSES.
THE SCHEDULING TEAM THAT YOU HEARD ABOUT EARLIER WILL SCHEDULE ALL CE COURSES AND THEN FOR AS FAR AS REGISTRATION FOR CE COURSES WHETHER IT'S OPEN ENROLLMENT OR EMPLOYER FUNDED THAT REGISTRATION PROCESS WILL BE CARRIED OUT BY WORKFORCE.
SO IN ADDITION TO YOU'LL OF THAT, THERE WILL BE AN ESSENTIAL TEAM AND SERVICES UNDER DR. GREG MORRIS WHO ARE FOCUS ON CE ACROSS ALL THE SCHOOL AND THEY WILL BE, WOULD TITHING A SMALL TEAM OF COORDINATES TO ENSURE THE SUCCESS OF CE PROGRAMS. SO AS I MENTIONED IT IS A WORK IN PROGRESS AND AS SOON AS THINGS ARE FINALIZED YOU'LL BE HEARING MORE ABOUT CE AND THE STRUCTURES AND POSITIONS.
>> WHEN WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THE STRUCTURE YOU TALKED ABOUT THE DEAN OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS AND IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE A MAJOR ROLE GOES FORWARD IN THE ORGANIZATION.
ARE THEY GOING TO BECOME DEANS OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS.
>> SO THE DEANS CANNOT BE AUTOMATICALLY DEANS OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS.
THEY WE HAD JOBS THAT WERE POSTED LAST THURSDAY AND WE EXPECT THE HIRE PROCESS FOR THE DEAN OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS TO BE VERY COMPETITIVE.
DURING THE PROCESS -- OR ANYONE WHO MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS MAY APPLY TO ANY OF THESE DEANS OF ACADEMIC AFFAIR POSITIONS.
WE DO HAVE A QUESTION SPECIFIC TO THE SCHOOL OF HEALTH SCIENCES WHILE I'VE GOT YOU.
FACULTY HAS NOTED THAT THE SCHOOL OF HEALTH SCIENCES -- WITH SPECIFIC ACCREDITATION NEEDS.
IN THE NEW STRUCTURE WHO IS GOING TO DO THE REVIEWS FOR THE ACCREDITATION REVIEWED AND THE SELF-STUDIES AND IF THE DEPARTMENT DOES NOT HAVE THE RIGHT ACCREDITATION WHEN SHE OVERSEE SO MANY PROGRAMS WHO IS GOING TO GO HANDLE THAT WILL OUR FOLKS BE ABLE TO SERVE AS INSPECTORS AND DOING ADVISE FOR THOSE SCHOOLS.
>> THOSE ARE QUESTION GETS AND THE SCHOOL OF HEALTH SCIENCE.
SO WHENEVER POSSIBLE WE WITH LOOK FOR DEPARTMENT CHAIR WHO ARE ABLE TO PERFORM THAT ROLE AND WE WILL HAVE TO HAVE FACULTY THAT WILL BE RESPONSIBLE AND THEY WILL BE GIVEN REASSIGNED TIME TO PERFORM THESE SPECIFIC DUTIES SO WE CAN MEET ACCREDITATION AND LICENSURE REQUIREMENTS.
THE REASSIGNED TIME WILL BE APPROACHED ON A CASE BY CASE BASE BECAUSE WE HAVE TO HAVE
[00:25:05]
PEOPLE WITH THOSE QUALIFICATIONS IN THOSE PROGRAM LEADS.SELF OF OUR HEALTH PROGRAMS PARTICIPATE IN NATIONAL ACCREDITATION SITE VISITS.
IT BRINGS WONDERFUL NEW IDEAS TO OUR SCHOOL OF HEALTH SCIENCE HOWEVER, YOU NEED TO NEAT WITH THE ACADEMIC CHAIR OR THE DEAN OF VICE PROVOST.
PRIOR TO YOUR PARTICIPATE ANYTHING THESE VISITS PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE MAY BE CRITICAL TIMES WHEN THE VISIT CANNOT BE ACCOMMODATED DUE TO SCHEDULING OR THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON THE CAMPUS BUT YOU'LL NEED TO DISCUSS THAT FURTHER WITH YOUR ACADEMIC CHAIRS OR WITH THE DEAN OR THE ADVICE PROVOST.
MAKE SURE THAT YOU DO USE PROFESSIONAL LEAD FORM THAT'S ARE OUT THERE ON THE WEBSITE AND CAN YOU USE THAT TIME AWAY FROM THE CAMPUS AS PROFESSIONAL LEAVE.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THAT.
WE'RE RUNNING TO THE END OF MY QUESTION LIST.
WE HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF TIME LEFT.
IS THERE ANYTHING THAT WE MIGHT HAVE MISSED TODAY AS OUR TIME COMES TO A CLOSE TODAY.
OTHERWISE I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE WHO SUBMITTED QUESTION.
WE HAVE SEVERAL HUNDRED FACULTY WITH US THIS AFTERNOON AND THANK YOU FOR TAKING TIME FOR PARTICIPATING AND DON'T FORGET ABOUT THOSE POSITION THAT'S ARE POSTED THEY DO CLOSE TOMORROW AND PLEASE TAKE TIME TO GO TO THE WEB SIDE AND CHECK THOSE OUT.
