> Dear Colleagues,
>
> The Society of Herbarium Curators and iDigBio are pleased to announce a
> 7-week "Strategic Planning for Herbaria? online course.
>
> Take this opportunity to introduce new purpose and excitement into your
> organization. Prepare to relate your collection?s compelling vision to
> stakeholders and discuss long-term goals and strategies with administrators.
>
> The ?Strategic Planning for Herbaria? course will occur on Fridays from
> 3:00?4:00 Eastern Standard Time from April 6?May 18, 2018. We anticipate
> that the course will require 3?5 hours of work per week, including the 1
> hour in-class. The goal is to produce a short (5?10 pages) strategic plan
> for each represented herbarium. Each plan will address vision, mission,
> stakeholders, strategies, goals, objectives, evaluation, and
> sustainability, among other things. The process is at least as valuable as
> the product, and you might find that the exercises benefit your herbarium
> in unexpected ways. This is the second year that this course will be
> offered.
>
> The course will be capped at 15 participants to ensure adequate
> opportunities to participate in discussions. We are looking for creative,
> committed participants who can help us to continue building momentum for
> this as an annual event. If multiple individuals from an herbarium are
> interested in participating in the course, we ask that one formally apply
> and the others participate in the out-of-class exercises and brainstorming
> sessions.
>
> To apply, please fill out this short Google Form <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__urldefense&d=DwIBaQ&c=cjytLXgP8ixuoHflwc-poQ&r=LpYc_Z_iN1KRw0hheb3x6-8MJUMu482qfHowpGYJqwc&m=_jWroqM8aodBRZsLDJ49bMlWfxUFfnmOOPSmIfQ4WjA&s=fiNu77-PyPcaI1eWU9mFKy-Je44g6pGLCeoexLXE7QI&e=.
