PEOPLE INVOLVED IN ADVANCE

The Organizational Structure (PDF) of the University of Arizona's ADVANCE program is composed of an Executive Committee that is generally responsible for the overall coordination, implementation, and programmatic oversight of the grant; three working groups each of which corresponds to an identified tier and are individually responsible for the associated interventions; one External Evaluation Committee that is responsible for the coordination of summative and formative evaluation; a Research Advisory Board that will advise on appropriate research; and two advisory boards that will provide ongoing input into the activities, events, and interventions.

Advisory Boards

The Executive Committee is counseled by three advisory boards, an internal Deans Advisory Board, an internal Research Advisory Board, and an external Strategic Advisory Board.

Committees

There are two committees within ADVANCE, the Executive Committee and the External Evaluation Committee. The Executive Committee is ultimately responsible for ensuring that the goals of the program and the interventions proposed are properly executed. The External Evaluation Committee is responsible for the coordination of all evaluative work.

Workgroups

Workgroups are responsible for the development and implementation of the various interventions and activities.
