Purpose and Goals
The
Professional Growth Committee in the Division of Student Affairs
serves as a vehicle for promoting personal and professional development
for both EPA and SPA staff. Staff serve as our most valuable resource
in making a significant impact on the educational experience of
students. By providing orientations, training, and in-service education
activities, staff are equipped with necessary skills to perform
effectively.
The
goals of the Professional Growth Committee are as follows:
- Orient
committee members to the responsibilities of their position
- Orient staff to the goals of the Division of Student Affairs
- Provide opportunities which allow for the development of a sense
of team at the division level and for the committee
- Teach skills needed to function successfully as an effective staff
member
- Provide opportunities for exposure to information that contributes
to the development of the individual
- Introduce staff to the philosophical orientation of the division
and the theoretical basis for student personnel work
