Topics Addressed (agenda items)¯

The Unit Standards Committee had been in abeyance for several years so the first action taken was to “revive” the committee. To this end, I met with ECOS to review the charge to the committee and requested advice on a communication strategy to obtain the list of units for 2005-2006 review. ECOS was able to facilitate the communication of units for review and the committee was able to begin unit standards reviews in early February.
