NC Campus Compact is partnering with Dr. Barbara Holland to help you grow your campus' community engagement monitoring and measuring.  Learn more about the initiative here.

All members of NC Campus Compact are eligible to participate. While there is no cost for the series, to attend the February 5 workshop with Dr. Holland you will need to be a paid participant of the 2014 PACE conference to be held at UNC Wilmington.

Participating campuses can choose from two tracks:

• STOMP (Starting to Optimize Monitoring Progress) for campuses that are in the early stages of community engagement measuring and monitoring practice
• STAMP (Starting to Advance Monitoring Progress) for campuses that are in the intermediate to advanced stages of community engagement measuring and monitoring practice 

Register here by September 15th. When you register you will need to identify your campus participants. You will then have the opportunity to identify your availability on September 30th for the first webinar.
