Friday,
October 16, 2009, 8:00AM - 3:30 PM at The Karl Anatol Center (AS-110).
The 13th annual CSU New Department Chairs Workshop will be held Friday, October 16, 2009, on the campus of California State University, Long Beach. The CSU New Department Chairs Workshop is an introduction to interpersonal skills and tools needed to effectively manage and lead in an academic setting. The format is a mix of interactive presentations and panel discussions.
This year, for the first time, our venue has moved to the Karl Anatol Center (Academic Services-110), on the south end of campus near the Seventh Street entrance.
The workshop, which will run from 8 a.m. until 3:30 p.m., will feature presentations on transitioning into the department chair role, understanding the CFA contract, legal issues for department chairs, and a panel of experienced chairs from around the CSU discussing how they would deal with some particularly challenging issues.
As always, there will be plenty of time for new chairs to ask questions and share their perspectives.
Continental breakfast (8:00-8:20) and lunch are included in the $60 registration fee, which is a 20% reduction from the previous year’s fee.
