DRIVE IN WORKSHOPS

CAPPA is aware there is some informal activity in the region, including Arkansas (Pine Bluff, 3/2017) and Missouri (Kansas City, 4/2017). These efforts offer education to the hosting institution and regional guests ‘outside’ the formal Drive-In workshops. The CAPPA Board has encouraged host institutions to keep us advised about these opportunities.

ACADEMY ON CAMPUS

CAPPA has made Academy on Campus available to the region since 2014. Registration has averaged 17 to these sessions. While most attendance is within the region, there are usually some attendees at each session from other regions. We are again working to make AOC available at the 2017 annual conference (joint with MAPPA).

OTHER PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT NEWS

CAPPA will not offer a Technology and Leadership Conference in 2018. Instead,

PD Committee will be directing its energies to the development of educational offerings for the 2018 annual conference (the agenda for the 2017 conference has been set). We will be increasing our efforts to deliver more opportunities, more often, in the form of Supervisor Toolkits, Academy on Campus, Drive-In Workshops, support for EFP and CEFP certification programs, and support for the annual conference.
