Session 1: Staff Development and Relations (9am-10:30am). Session Description: TRIO fortunately has professional development embedded in its structure; however, it is often relegated to the “back burner.” This session explores why and how enriching professional development opportunities and intentionally improving staff relations is crucial to building a model program. We will discuss ten principles of a vibrant staff development component. Each person will work on a plan to implement one or more staff development opportunities or activities to improve staff relations.
-
Session 2: Improving Institution and Community Relations (10:45am-12:00pm). Session Description: Affecting campus climate is a regulatory responsibility of SSS and, perhaps should be something all TRIO professionals should strive to achieve. In return, TRIO needs higher respect and understanding. This session looks at methods for enriching how we work with institutional and community agency colleagues.
