The VYCC instills the values of personal responsibility, hard work, education, and respect for the environment in young people.

The VYCC Headquarters office is located in Waterbury, Vermont. The office currently houses fourteen staff.

Full-time staff need to balance personal initiative and independence with an ability to effectively utilize the team process to get results. Staff must also be able to maintain focus and productivity among a bustling office atmosphere while sharing office space with others.

Extractions: Greeting! I'm Vicki L. Gist , Assistant Director of the Residential Education office. I am a native of Union, South Carolina with a bachelor's degree in Mathematics and a master's degree in Higher Education Administration, both from the University of South Carolina, Columbia. My previous professional experiences include work in Judicial and Safety programs and Multicultural Student Affairs. Additionally, I spent a summer at Dartmouth as the first graduate intern for a co-sponsored program between the Office of Residential Life (as the Coordinator of Summer Staff and Programs), and the Amos Tuck School of Business (as the Coordinator of Residential Life for the LEAD Summer Business Institute). I joined the professional staff of the Residential Education office in July of 1998 as the Area Director for West Campus, and Coordinator for Multicultural Education. A large part of my work involves supervision of the professional Community Directors who live in the residence halls, coordination and implementation of the selection and training programs for our live-in student staff (Undergraduate Advisors and Program Liaisons), providing direction for the office's Academic Affinity and Special Interest programs, and working with staff and students to create learning opportunities for our residents. Professionally, my interests include multicultural education and leadership development, and the things that keep me happy are reading, listening to music, shopping and laughing. My office on the 3rd floor of Gerry Hall feel free to stop by and chat.

Extractions: Assessment aligning with standards and measuring actual student performance is a crucial part of systemic reform. Student assessment results form the basis for Action Planning and improving curriculum and instruction. These results also are major factors in determining school accountability under Vermont's Equal Education Opportunity Act. When you click on this area, you will find a description of VISMT's assessment activities and links to key assessment sites statewide and nationally. VISMT participates in development of state and national assessments in science, math, and technology. VISMT can also provide technical assistance in developing classroom assessments, in interpreting and using assessment results, and in using results to promote systemic change. Professional Development Educators are lifelong learners, so the best professional development is "continuous," meaning that it is available all of the time from the first years of service until the last. High quality professional development is also "embedded" in the daily and weekly life and work of the profession, meaning that it is not a short-term, separate activity. These two key ideas, and many other important concepts can be found in the

Extractions: Accreditation 1998-99 Self Study Report STANDARD 4: DIVISION OF CONTINUING EDUCATION Introduction The Division of Continuing Education (DCE) represents the University in serving Vermont and the world through the design, development, and delivery of credit courses, certificates, degrees, residential institutes, workshops, community programs, conferences, videotaped panels, teleconferences, and national satellite broadcasts. In addition, the Division supports UVM with marketing expertise, faculty and staff development, curriculum design, and distance learning technology. Since FY91, DCE has been engaged in simultaneous processes to identify new educational opportunities, discover and aggregate intellectual resources within UVM and beyond, design and develop programs, deliver and evaluate courses, and effectively represent the University to the entire range of its constituencies, a portion of which have not historically been recognized by the University as central to its mission. As an income-expense unit, and the largest such entity within UVM, DCE is solely responsible for its own financial health. We must therefore constantly test assumptions, learn from each other, and apply our learning to the next semester, course, conference, faculty hire, market research project, and investment in technology. Without continuous learning and continuous improvement, there is a significant risk of losing the non-degree students who, with each registration or fee payment, make a decision to attend UVM.

Extractions: PURPOSE: To demonstrate the use of telehealth technology as a vehicle for providing diabetes education for staff nurses in a rural hospital OBJECTIVES: The participants will be able to: describe the necessary technology requirements to provide telehealth education define the process for initiating a nursing telehealth project appreciate the value of nurse particpation in the formation of a telehealth network GENERAL OVERVIEW: Access to advanced practice nurses for purposes of staff development is limited in small rural hospitals. The cost of providing the education is often cause for delay or denying staff the opportunity to refine or update their skills in a rapidly changing field such as diabetes management. Hepburn Hospital of Ogdensburg, New York, is a 150 bed community hospital in rural upstate New York which has identified a need for such a program. The cost of providing the desired diabetes education to a core team of seven staff members was estimated to be $2000. This included reimbursement for mileage for the 7 hour round trip and salary for the staff members. It does not include the cost of replacement staffing for shifts affected. The cost of the advanced practice nurse and dietitian would remain unchanged in either a telehealth or face-to-face model.

Henderson Foundation and the Vermont Education Initiative, VSA Arts of VT's Early Childhood Development Program brings enhanced arts-based services to over 100 children in Burlington and Winooski whose families are homeless, at-risk of becoming homeless, or residents of Winooski and the Old North End in Burlington. Programming takes place at the Riverside Public Housing Project, the Committee on Temporary Shelter's Family Shelter, the Champlain Multi-Generational Center, the Sara Holbrook Center, and within the public school system of Winooski. These programs run year-round. VSA Arts of Vermont has conducted three separate year-round arts programs for pre-schoolers and elementary school aged children, along with program coordination and art supplies. These programs - New Visions Dance Project, Start With The Arts and Home in the Arts - have been enormous successes. The intent of the above programs is to provide early childhood development services for children with disabilities, lower-income families who reside in public housing, and families who are homeless or at risk of becoming so. Along with expanding the number of hours of available subsidized childcare - and, through the creation of evening and weekend programming, which increases the flexibility of that childcare - VSA Arts of Vermont's goal is to contribute to the emphasis on quality care that will insure children who are at-risk receive the necessary supports for healthy development.
