Advisory Council and Faculty
The CPS program will be guided by a CPS Advisory Council comprised of a faculty representative from each of the sponsoring departments or units:
Educational Psychology
Health and Kinesiology
Recreation, Park and Tourism Sciences
Communication
School of Rural Public Health
The CPS Advisory Council will provide input and oversight on all matters related to the CPS program. Each faculty member appointed to the Council will have graduate faculty status. Representatives will be appointed by the Head of each cooperating department/unit. Other departments will be welcome to join the founding group after petition to and approval of the CPS Advisory Council.
The Chair of the CPS Advisory Council will oversee the day-to-day operation of the program, notify each student's committee chair on all matters related to a student's performance in the program, compile a list of students meeting the certificate requirements, and work with the Registrar to insure that transcripts appropriately designate students who have completed the program. The Chair will be elected by a plurality of the members of the CPS Advisory Council. The Chair's department will be the administrative department for the CPS during the term of the service as chair. [Currently the Chair of the CPS Advisory Council is Jan Hughes, and the administrative department is the Department of Educational Psychology.]
