Planning and Organizing for the Proficient-College Access Professional

Beyond organizing the day-to-day work implementing services, planning and organizing should also take into account the big picture and how that impacts day-to-day work. In this proficient-level course, begin strategizing how to plan and organize your services in a more holistic way to make a true impact in communities.

This course covers:

  • Align plans to the GEAR UP vision;
  • Measurable objectives;
  • Project planning and monitoring; and
  • Support implementation.
To expand on your learning beyond the emerging-level course, take this course to understand the "big picture" in planning and organizing services.
