[VPAAEtal] REMINDER: Workshops with Dr. Ron Carter

[Academic Affairs]

Good afternoon, Academic Affairs,

This is a reminder that Dr. Ron Carter is beginning his workshop next week focusing on best practices for the search process. The workshop is for any faculty member, instructor, or department head interested in learning more about the search process. A second workshop will be offered looking at the selection process. You do not need to sign up to attend these workshops ahead of time, but the first workshop is a required prerequisite for the second.

Please see the information below and contact Ginny Haight in the Provost Office at extension 8787 with any questions. If you attend on Zoom, make sure to use the most current links found below.

Workshop I, Elements of an External Search, explores the key elements of a proactive national search process. Dr. Carter will facilitate a discussion on how to clarify organizational needs in terms of challenges and opportunities, align stakeholders' expectations with a hiring official's and a search committee's human resource decisions, create and develop a strong slate of potential candidates, and evaluate candidates based on their measurable skills and behaviors that are critical for success in the job.

*        Monday, September 25 from 9:30-11:00 AM

Workshop II, The Elusive Notion of Fit in the Search Process, aims to answer one of the most common questions asked in the search process, "What are we looking for in a high-quality candidate?" Dr. Carter will break down the selection process of human resources decision-making into three main aspects: job analysis data, organizational analysis, and the elusive role of fit. He will explore both rational and political perspectives when it comes to selecting the right candidate for the job and present a model that blends all three aspects into a dynamic process.
