[DEOC] [External] Process

[Valencia, Iesha]

Hi Robert,

We don't have a standard process, but if it's a conference I am coordinating attendance for (FSOCC, NCORE, NW Equity) I do send an all campus email to provide transparent access and allow people to express interest. If they are faculty, they usually have a pool of funding they are eligible for so I mostly end up prioritizing selecting staff. I am transparent that the funding will prioritize people taking a role in EDI on our campus (committee members, committee chairs, employees whose position has EDI embedded expectations, my staff) and also employees who have traditionally not had access to this type of professional development. For FSOCC specifically, I also include a statement around centering and prioritizing faculty and staff of color and have offered white faculty and staff the option to attend the privilege institute (formerly known as the White Privilege Conference).  I do like to do a pre-conference gathering with attendees and post-conference debrief so that it has a collective feel to it versus individuals attending on their own.

Hi All,

Do you all have a standard process or procedure in use on your campuses for the selection of individuals attending Conferences? In particular conferences like NCORE, ATD, NADOHE, FSOCC etc. where multiple persons from your college may want to attend.

Please Advise.....
