The following is information about a workshop for NTT staff. Please share broadly as appropriate.
Colleagues, the National Outreach Scholarship Conference (NOSC) is in East Lansing, hosted by Michigan State University, this year from October 1-5. On the regular program , NCSU has 12 faculty, students and staff, from six colleges, CALS, CHASS, Design, Education, PAMS and Engineering, presenting symposia, papers, posters, or workshops. Congratulations to all of them.
Additionally, there is a workshop for non-tenure track staff working in engagement that you may want to consider for staff. Please forward to your college colleagues, relevant networks and listservs,
and others who might be interested. Jim Zuiches
2011 National Outreach Scholarship Conference (NOSC):
**Preconference Workshop for Outreach and Engagement Staff**
Saturday, October 1, 2011
10:00 am-4:00 pm
Kellogg Hotel & Conference Center, Michigan State University
Led by peer practitioners with keynote speakers Lorilee Sandmann
(University of Georgia) and Randy Stoecker (University of Wisconsin-Madison)
This preconference is designed for university staff members who, in
roles distinct from those of tenure-track faculty, facilitate and manage
ongoing projects, programs, services, research and relationships with
community partners. Join us to explore our emerging professional
identity as outreach and engagement practitioners and the unique set of
strengths and challenges that we share. Because of the overlap in
roles, skills and values, "boundary spanners" who facilitate
community-university partnerships on behalf of community organizations
are also welcome to attend.
