Packaging • Because looks do matter: • 3-ring binder with clear, insertable cover • Insert name/date page on cover and name on spine of binder • Clear sheet protectors for all supporting items • High quality, bright white paper
Packaging • Use dividers to label each section • Consider a cover page for each section of supporting documents outlining contents • Make it easy to review • Easier to look at if don’t have to remove stapled documents from individual sleeves
Format • Easily readable font • Plenty of white space • Pictures and charts are good
Your Past Narratives Are Your Best Friend If you’ve done a good job on them, you have all the info you need.
Interpreting the Guidelines • Make sure your document demonstrates abilities and competencies outlined in CESP 1-69. • Guidelines for supporting documents are NOT open to interpretation.
No Interpretation Necessary • Academic Record • Employment Record • Performance Evaluations • Position Responsibility
County Program Section • Long-term goals of CEC Sub-committees should align with programming in your document • Long-term objectives can directly link to Impact Programs • These goals should frame: • Program planning (section C) • Impact programs (section D)
Impact Programs • You get to pick 3 • One needs to be Youth Development • Different interpretation of what “program” means • Choose Broadly • Think about the program names in AIMS • Improving Human Health & Aging • Horticulture Production & Management
Impact Programs • Which is better: • Reshape Yourself as an Impact Program OR • Healthy Lifestyles as an “Impact Program”, which includes Reshape Yourself, Right Bite, and Strong Women
Impact Programs • Description • Educational Method • Evaluation Method • Impacts
Other Programs • This is where everything else goes • Description • Educational Method • Evaluation Method • Impact • Find a way to show impact • Charts/graphs and pictures are good
