Staff Development: A Community College Plan.
McCarter, W. Ronald; Grigsby, Charles E.
This document describes the rationale, development, and implementation of a coordinated college-wide staff development plan at Southeastern Community College. The plan, devised as a result of faculty and staff input, provides for the professional development and evaluation of all college staff: instructional personnel, administrative staff, secretarial and maintenance personnel. Components of the plan for faculty include: evaluation by students, evaluation by supervisor, and evaluation of non-instructional activities (student advisement, committee work). In addition, each faculty member annually submits, after consultation, an Individual Professional Development Plan, specifying short- and long-range goals and means to attain them, and is thereafter evaluated on progress made toward goal completion. Administrative staff and counselors use a similar approach to professional development activity. Secretarial personnel have a Professional Standard Program which involves course work, workshops, work experience, and testing. Plant maintenance personnel have a system of professional development which includes course work, literature distribution and review, workshops, and evaluation checklists. Part-time faculty are individually oriented and attend teaching skill development workshops. The plan is intended to be flexible and responsive to changing college conditions. Forms used in the evaluation processes are attached. (JDS)
