Charge to the Professional Development Committee

Charge:

To further the basic SACUBO mission of advancing sound principles and good practices of college and university business management, the Professional Development Committee shall provide timely, high-quality, broadly-available, continuing education opportunities for professionals in the business functions of institutions of higher education. The Professional Development (PD) Committee is responsible for providing strategic planning of professional development opportunities for SACUBO and for coordinating those strategic plans into action. The PD Committee is responsible for providing non-operational oversight for all SACUBO professional development activities. Such oversight extends to SACUBO Annual Meeting, SACUBO Fall Workshop, SACUBO Drive-In Workshops, NASBA Certification and Continuing Professional Development compliance with NASBA pronouncements, ACUBO Innovation Council (AIC) activities, and any other professional development activities not specifically assigned elsewhere in these by-laws. The PD Committee is responsible for conducting, in coordination with the NASBA Coordinator, all evaluation processes (evaluation instruments and collation of results) utilized at SACUBO professional development events. The PD Committee is responsible for conducting periodic needs assessments to determine ever changing membership professional development needs and presenting such results to the SACUBO Board. The committee’s charge is not intended to supersede or otherwise modify the operational authority for the SACUBO Annual Meeting assigned to the First Vice President in Section 4.3 of the by-laws, the operational authority for the SACUBO Fall Workshop assigned to the Second Vice President in Section 4.4 of the by-laws, or the operational charges assigned to the Drive-In Workshop Coordinator or the NASBA Coordinator by the SACUBO President/Board.

Membership:

• Members are appointed by SACUBO Leadership position, as follows: SACUBO’s non-Officer representative to the AIC (Chair), SACUBO President, SACUBO First Vice President, SACUBO Second Vice President, SACUBO Third Vice President, SACUBO Immediate Past President, SACUBO Constituent Committee Chairs, CBMI Representative, Drive-In Workshop Coordinator, Best Practices Coordinator, SACUBO Annual Meeting General Sessions Coordinator and, as ex-officio members, the administrative assistants to the SACUBO President and SACUBO Vice Presidents and the Host Committee Chair.
• The Professional Development Committee will be chaired by SACUBO’s non-Officer representative to the AIC. In the absence of the chair, the senior SACUBO Officer present will serve as chair.

Meetings:

• Three meetings annually will be supported with reimbursement per SACUBO travel policy. The first meeting is held concurrently with the SACUBO Annual Meeting for which any newly-appointment members will attend with the members of the previous committee (e.g., prior-year and current-year Constituent Committee Chairs will attend as well as the nominated SACUBO Third Vice President). This meeting will serve as an orientation meeting for new members. In addition the program for the SACUBO Fall Workshop will be finalized to the extent possible. The Chair and/or the SACUBO First Vice President may task you to support the current SACUBO Annual Meeting by making speaker introductions or other tasks as deemed necessary. Members are encouraged to plan and budget to attend the entire SACUBO Annual Meeting for each year they serve on the committee. The second meeting will be scheduled around June at the next SACUBO Annual Meeting site, or as designated by the SACUBO president. This meeting’s purpose is to fine tune the programs for the SACUBO Fall Workshop and finalize the program for the next SACUBO Annual Meeting. This meeting will be held the day following the meetings of the SACUBO Constituent Committees who are tasked to propose topics appropriate to the SACUBO membership in general and their constituencies specifically for the next SACUBO Annual Meeting. The third meeting is held prior to the SACUBO Fall Workshop. Members are encouraged to plan and budget to attend the Fall Workshop for which they are responsible. At each meeting the PD Committee will review the evaluations of any professional development activity which occurred since the last meeting and review and enhance the evaluation and reporting process. The remainder of the work of the Committee is accomplished by mail, fax, e-mail and telephone.
