The Work Plan Actionable Goals

• Goal 1
• The Associates to the Executive Committee
  (one from each zone) will develop a
  communications and dissemination plan that will
  facilitate the work of various committees and
  charged by ACTEA leadership. This networking
  approach will be founded on 21st century
  technologies, and modeled after effective
  processes currently used in highly efficient
  organizations.
• Goal 2
• The Associates to the Executive Committee will
  develop and implement a clearly articulated set
  of processes and tools that will facilitate work
  plans, communication strategies, and decision
  making protocols, and meeting forums.

The Work Plan Actionable Goals

• Goal 3
• By March, 2009 the Associates to the Executive
  Committee will report out to the Executive
  Committee no fewer than three measurable outcomes
  from their efforts over the previous year. These
  outcomes may include
• Clarifying the primary roles of the ACTEA, CTERC
  and regional BOCES / Big Five School Districts as
  it relates to policy, technical support and
  guidance.
• Identifying gaps in the leadership and guidance
  that ACTEA provides to the field, and
  recommendations to improve.
• Providing advocacy for policy reform in New York
  State through the sharing of best practice
  achieved in the past decade in Career and
  Technical Education.
• Using current and emergent technologies to
  facilitate the effectiveness of all ACTEA
  initiatives within NY State.

Work to Date

• Development of a Wiki (ACTEA101_at_pbwiki.com) for
  asynchronous interaction and information sharing
  between the Associates to the Executive Committee
• Use of Safari Live for synchronous communication
  and planning
• Development and implementation of on-line surveys
  (Zoomerang) to elicit input from the field on
  issues identified by the Executive Committee to
  be pertinent to their work
• Ongoing collaboration with the Executive
  Committee using innovative technology-based
  communication tools
