Bonner Pipeline Booklet

More than ever before, campuses are seeking skilled and experienced staff who can lead increasingly integrated and campus-wide community and civic engagement efforts. With this growth is increased complexity in leadership roles, with staff managing student development, community partnerships, and integration with faculty and other offices and departments across campus. If you are considering creating a staff position for your center or program, we recommend reviewing the Bonner Pipeline Frameworks Booklet. The booklet lists competencies in different areas related to Emerging Leaders, Program Coordinators, Program Directors, and Centers Directors.
