| Summary: | Twenty-one community/junior colleges and technical institutes in the South were surveyed in order to gain insight into policies on the use of advisory committees for vocational-technical programs. Of these, 75% responded, all indicating that use of advisory committees in relation to vocational-technical programs was important. However, only 67% of the respondents had institutional policies and procedures governing the use of advisory committees. Subsequently, policies and procedures for more adequately defining the role and function and operation of advisory committees at the Mississippi Gulf Coast Junior College--Jackson Campus were written. These policies and procedures are appended in a self-contained document which makes up the bulk of this report, and which address: (1) the role and function of vocational-technical advisory committees; (2) constituting committees; (3) committee meetings; (4) areas of committee concern; (5) keeping the committee involved; and (6) formal institutional recognition of services rendered by committee members. Additionally appended are sample letters, forms, and other materials for use in establishing and maintaining advisory committees. (Author/JDS) |
