Roundtable Discussion with President Laurel Jones
CABRILLO CONNECTS PLAN
Laurel thanked the committee for all the work they have done for professional
development. One of Cabrillo’s big initiatives currently is the inclusion of an institutionalized
campus-wide model for professional development hinged on outcomes related to student
success. The efforts will ensure we broaden good work. [check model used at College of the
Canyons] The vision is for a larger group to address campus professional development
issues and that group reports directly to CPC. Their charge would include developing an
annual theme, managing resources, coordinating awards, maintaining a calendar, and
archiving prof dev resources. The branches of PD would be inclusive of classified staff,
administrators, and faculty. The Flex Calendar would continue to be managed by the
Teaching and Learning Center and the members of the Staff Development Committee.
There would be a separate sub-committee for classified and for administrators. The focus of
all three groups would be personal growth, professional competencies, and
transformational learning. Potential outcomes would include:
 In house workshops based on theme
 Limited conference funding, types of conferences that benefit college
 Separate classified PD funding
 How events correlate with Student Success Plan
 Convocation hour; time and place people can meet
 Imaging first semester, pilot second semester
