The Virginia Association for Management Analysis and Planning 2000 Annual Conference

There are a variety of topics and presenters this year, covering IR, planning, budgeting, evaluation, and institutional effectiveness practices in both public and private institutions. The conference will feature a plenary session given by J. Joseph Hoey on SACS institutional effectiveness guidelines and strategies for implementation that will provide a wealth of information of interest to all VAMAP members. Many of the new initiatives regarding higher education in Virginia will also be reviewed and discussed including reports of institutional effectiveness, institutional performance agreements, the master plan for higher education in Virginia, and base budgeting.  SCHEV Director Phyllis Palmiero will address the organization, and VAMAP is offering professional development workshops again this year
