Project IMPACT Evaluation Training/Update Sept 9th


August 21st, 2014

Good morning – as you might be aware, we have scheduled a Project IMPACT Evaluation Training/Update meeting for September 9th from 9:00 am to 3:30 pm at The Central Community College Board Room. I know several members of the Project IMPACT Evaluation Advisory Group are planning to attend. I would encourage ALL of you to please show your support for the project by either attending in person or sitting in via phone conferencing. Your input continues to be a vital part of the evaluation process. We need both internal and external viewpoints on the progress of Project IMPACT.

I would encourage you to view the webpage - http://www.impactnebraska.org/ and send me your feedback. If you have access to the OneDrive account, please review the wealth of information pertaining to curriculum, instruction, marketing, etc. Again your feedback is important.

In addition, I would like your views on two other issues:
- How to raise the level of your involvement
- Explore the possibility of adding new members to the Evaluation Advisory Group

I feel I have not done an adequate job of utilizing this group to its potential. I know all of you are very busy with work and family; however you bring such a high level of expertise that I want to find better ways of tapping your advice so I might send that information on to the leadership at Project IMPACT. If you could recommend other potential members, particularly from the world of manufacturing, I would be open to expanding the group. But it needs to be worth it – I’ll work to make it worthy of their time.

Let me know – let’s get this blog going as a way of communicating. I know it’s hard to get into the habit of going to the blog (as I’m aware in my too infrequent additions!), but let’s give it the ol’ Nebraska Effort!!
