Request Resources

Annual Resource Request

As a part of the budget cycle, it is important that least once per year we complete an assessment of the funding needed to meet our strategic goals. The form below is to be used to request GPR budget funding. Although funding is not guaranteed, the purpose is to identify all needs and determine what can be funded with available resources.

Development Process Guidelines

The purpose of this document is to give guidance to those interested in developing a self-supporting program for our campus.

Recommended Process to follow is:

1. Perform Needs assessment.
2. • See "Needs Assessment" worksheet for considerations (you may think of others).
   • Document your assessment and information sources.
     
2. Gather information required and populate Financial Template to determine feasibility of self-support
3. • Estimate staffing costs, start-up costs, and continuing program costs, as well as estimated student enrollment and credit load.
   • Plug numbers into the template to calculate estimated tuition rates required in order to self-support.
   • add tuition/fees for competing programs to the template for comparison purposes.
   • Review and evaluate if the program appears to be financially feasible.
     
3. If the program appears to be financially feasible, consider how the program would be evaluated once implemented
   
4. • See "Evaluation Planning" worksheet for considerations (you may think of other evaluation measures).
   • Document proposed evaluation processes and criteria.
     
4. If, after performing the research and analysis above, there is still a desire to move forward, prepare a detailed new program proposal, using the information collected.
   
   
5. Submit the proposal for review/approval.

   • Dean.
   • Academic Policy and Program Committee (required per Faculty and Academic Staff Handbook 3.3 Article III, section A.5).
