GOAL 2: Update the curriculum for currency in the field and to maintain ASHA standards at the highest levels.
STRATEGIES FOR ATTAINMENT: Faculty will be responsive to input relative to curricular changes, as provided by students, Advisory Board, professionals in the field, the literature, and to ASHA communications of same. The department chair will promote interest among the faculty, encouraging them to be aware of changes that should be made to improve the curriculum and to submit ideas to the faculty at-large.
SCHEDULE FOR ANALYSIS AND EVALAUTION OF THE PLAN: Faculty will analyze ideas brought forth by its members or others at regular faculty meetings and committee meetings, and at the annual retreat. The plan to revise curriculum will be evaluated for its effectiveness and progress by the entire faculty at the annual retreat.
SHARING WITH CONSTITUENTS: Not only will the faculty be open to changes proffered by its constituents (professionals, students, Advisory Board, and others), but will share any changes proposed to the same groups via notices posted in the department, NSSLHA meetings, professional conferences, state meetings, and through mailings.
GOAL 3: Development and maintenance of compliance with HIPAA regulations within the department and clinic.
STRATEGIES FOR ATTAINMENT: Faculty will be educated in all aspects of HIPAA compliance and will be responsible to maintain compliance, as directed by the Compliance Officer. All faculty and staff will assure compliance of students on an on-going basis. Periodic review of procedures and other information will be provided per HIPAA and university regulations.
SCHEDULE FOR ANALYSIS: On-going analysis with discussion at faculty meetings will be mandatory. The Compliance Officer will hold biannual training of faculty at the beginning of the fall semester and at the spring retreat.
REGULAR EVALUATION OF THE PLAN: Same as above.
SHARING INFORMATION WITH CONSTITUENTS: Students, and especially graduate students, will be fully trained in HIPAA procedures and will be an essential element in compliance. The Department Chair and Compliance Officer will monitor compliance and share information with students. The Advisory Board will be brought up-to-date on compliance procedures at each meeting of that group.
GOAL 4: Promote and actively participate in the American Association of Academic Programs in Communication Sciences and Disorders and the California Association of Academic Programs in Communication Sciences and Disorders.

SCHEDULE FOR ANALYSIS: On-going analysis by Department Chair, Administrative Committee, and the faculty.
EVALUATION OF THE PLAN: Faculty will evaluate the plan to determine if the funds expended for dues and conference expenses are compensatory with the value to the department as-a-whole.
SHARING INFORMATION WITH CONSTITUENTS: Information gathered by attendance and participation in the AAAPCSD and CAAPCSD meeting and conferences will be shared, as needed, with students, Advisory Board, professionals in the field, and university personnel.
NOTE: Attendance at the meetings of the above-named organizations provides representatives with the latest information from other academic programs, activities of the State Licensing Board, the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing, and the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. Representatives become acquainted with their counterparts in other academic programs, which allows for future interchanges of information, etc.
