Dr. Pérez reported that the Staff PEP process has finished and that the Office of Professional Development and Evaluation of Programs is working on making the process completely online for FY 2010.

Dr. Pérez reported that FSEO received Department Chairs (DC) evaluated through a different form than the PEP for employees. Discussion ensued and the EC agreed to create a new form that blends the DC form with the safety question, the service learning questions and the professional development completion question. Dr. Pérez wanted to clarify to the committee that the information FSEO provides to Pick-a-Prof is public information and is given through an Open Records Request. Reports are considered public records. ACC does not sell data.

Dr. Pérez reported that Counselors’ forms have been finished and approved by Deans. They are now included in the procedures manual under non-instructional faculty. FSEO will continue to support counselor training with the new format.
