Calendar Update Procedure

The following procedure was updated at the May 21, 2018 Training Committee meeting.

Motivation

  • The “calendar is king” – one source of truth for what is happening and when.
  • We need to communicate calendar updates between training committee, professional staff, training staff, volunteer leaders (our customers!) and other interested parties.
  • We need a calendar we can stand behind and others can trust. We’ll have to earn that trust.
  • Training related dates must originate from the training committee and not be imposed on it.
  • Changes to already-established dates need to be minimized as much as possible. If changes are required, they must be handled carefully.

Procedure

  1. When a new date or changed training-related date is proposed, communicate it to Bob S.
  2. Bob S. will review with the program subcommittee and Wes M. to confirm that the new/changed date is “real” (something we can own).
  3. Assuming the date is valid, Bob S. will communicate the date to Wes M., Larry B., and Joe C.
  4. Wes will communicate the add/change through the professional staff.
  5. Larry will communicate the add/change through the training committee and the general council through the training committee’s Facebook pages, email lists, etc.
  6. Joe will update the council website to reflect the change.
  7. Bob will be responsible for the overall procedure.
