institutions are encouraged to establish the specific agendas for the campus visits to

fit their own organization. However, HRAB-SPA members will be interested in a

presentation by human resource division managers concerning their respective areas

of responsibility as reflected in the organization chart including:

1.

A description of the various personnel processes in each human resource

functional area ranging from the establishment of a position and hiring of an

individual through separation of the individual. This should include processes

involved in classification, compensation, employment, benefits, training and

development, etc.;

2.

A description of how the human resources office interacts and communicates

with all areas of the campus;

3.

A discussion of the information management system used and the way in which

data are reported to PMIS.

Following receipt of the plan of operation and campus visits, the HRAB-SPA will

recommend to the president acceptance or rejection of institutional plans and requested

levels of delegation. The decision to delegate partial, full or no authority to constituent

institutions will be made by the president based upon the recommendation of the HRAB-

SPA and other information, as the president deems appropriate.

The HRAB-SPA expects to have recommendations to the president for delegation for all

institutions made during the summer, 1999. In order to do this, written plans should be

submitted as soon as possible but not later than May 3, 1999. Your director of human

resources will be contacted to set specific dates for site visits.
