Staff Development

Coordination of statewide extension staff development efforts is another departmental initiative. Plans are underway to establish frameworks for conducting online training and for a learning management system to track inservice training from the planning stages through individual training records. Extenison internship programs (Philip Morris and Minority) are also a part of staff devlopment responsibilities. Randol Waters works most directly with these initiatives.
