Early Career Development (ECD) Committee
Rebekah Norman, Chair
The Early Career Development (ECD) Committee is responsible for developing educational programs directed at NACAA members with five years or less tenure. Efforts are to develop programs, materials and partnerships to orient and assist Extension personnel early in their career. Many times these programs are relevant to all agents regardless of their tenure.
The objectives are:
• Solicit input from new members regarding their expectations and training needs.
• Develop means to encourage new and early career members to participate and continue involvement in NACAA and the AM/PIC.
• Improve communications with early career members.
• Provide opportunities for graduate, continuing education and other professional certification credits for professional improvement.
• Encourage the development and utilization of mentoring programs in individual states.
• Understanding the awards and professional improvement opportunities.
