The Santa Clarita Community College District Board of Trustees will hold a self-evaluation workshop Wednesday, April 24, beginning at 2 p.m.

The workshop will take place in the University Center, Room 301 on the Valencia campus of College of the Canyons, located at 26455 Rockwell Canyon Road.

The Santa Clarita Community College District Board of Trustees regularly conducts its self-evaluation in accordance with standards set by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC). Further, the Board of Trustees was an early adopter in establishing a policy on Board Self-Evaluation.

The self-evaluation workshops provides the Board of Trustees with the opportunity to come together as a team to coalesce and develop a sense of shared purpose so that it may carry out and optimize its role on behalf of our community and for the good of the institution. The Board’s Self-Evaluation workshop will be facilitated by Ms. Dianne McKay (a facilitator from the “League On Call” program offered by the Community College League of California).

The full agenda can be found [here].

WEBINAR ID: 850-6298-3796
