Frequently Asked Questions
Select a category below for frequently-asked questions.
General
Question: Does UACES training and staff development follow a calendar or
fiscal year for budgeting purposes?
Answer: Our training year follows the state fiscal year and runs from July 1 to
June 30 every year.
Question: Who pays for our department or program's in-service training for
Extension employees?
Answer:
Training Delivery: Faculty who wish to deliver in-service training can
submit an In-Service Training Proposal to the Program and Staff Development
Department by April 15th each year. Faculty can request full or partial funding
for their in-service training. In-service funding provided through the Program
and Staff Development Department can include: training supplies, facility cost,
on-site meal & break expenses (lunch requires a minimum of 6 hours training
during the day), and lodging for multi-day training. All meal and lodging costs
must be funded at or below the state allowable rates. Mileage and other travel
costs to training are not funded through the PSD Department.
Individual Faculty Training: CES employees who are enrolled in an
approved Extension PSD In-Service training will have on-site meal and lodging
expenses paid for through a direct billing contract. No out-of-pocket expenses
are usually required. All travel and personal expenses are the responsibility of
the individual and/or their administrative department. All CES in-service
training must receive prior approval by supervisory personnel.
Question: Is Program and Staff Development part of a UA department up in
Fayetteville?
Answer: The PSD interim department is Dr. Karen Ballard. She reports directly to
Dr. Tony Windham, interim Extension Director.
Question: My staff desperately needs training in conflict management. Can you
fix them with a 1 hour session at our next department retreat?
Answer: We can’t do magic . . . but we will help you develop a training plan
in response to your needs. There is no magic pill or one-hour miracle for most
organizational problems. Nonetheless, PSD faculty work regularly with department
directors, county staff chairs, and administrators to respond to your
organizational training needs. Specialty training, outside of the scheduled
in-service offerings, is available on a range of topics to support Extension
management and personnel. PSD faculty are available to meet with Extension
managers to discuss training needs, resources available, and options for
training support.
Question: We want to put our course online. We don’t have the skills or the
time. Will PSD do it for us?
Answer: No, but if you want to develop an online course, you will have help
every step of the way. Faculty who wish to develop an online course should first
schedule an appointment with Lisa Ferris, the PSD instructional design and
elearning specialist. PSD provides training and ongoing instructional design
consultation for Extension faculty and staff for course conversion or
development of new online courses. This "hands-on” assistance can be an on-going
process and can be customized to work with each faculty member’s unique needs,
content, and schedule.
Continuing Education Credits (CEUs)
Question: I would like to offer CEU credits to the participants in one of my
Extension programs. How can I do this?
Answer:
Official CEUs from the University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension
Service can only be issued by programs that have been approved to do so. The
approval process involves completing and submitting a Continuing Education Unit
(CEU) Approval Form for the program in question. To be approved to issue CEU
credits, a program must meet the criteria outlined on the CEU Approval Form. The
approval form is reviewed to be sure the program meets these criteria. If so,
the program will be approved to issue CEU credits. The CEU Approval Form can be
obtained by contacting Rich Poling in the Program and Staff Development
Department (rpoling@uaex.edu 501-671-2084).
Question: How do our clientele apply for their continuing education unit
(CEU) credits after completing a CEU-approved Extension program?
Answer: When a program has been approved to offer Extension CEU credits, a
CEU Application Form designed specifically for that program will be given to the
issuing program’s coordinator. Individuals successfully completing a
CEU-offering program will be given the CEU application form, with program
information already filled out and the form signed by the program instructor.
The individual desiring the CEU credits will then complete the remaining
information on the CEU approval form and send it, along with the appropriate
payment, to the person indicated at the bottom of the form. This will either be
the program’s overall coordinator or the Program and Staff Development (PSD)
Department in Little Rock, depending on the preference of the program’s
coordinator. The application is processed in the PSD Department and the CEU
certificate is sent directly to the individual applying for the credits.
Question: How is the total earned number of Extension continuing education
unit (CEU) credits calculated for someone completing a CEU-approved program?
Answer:
The number of CEUs offered for participation in a CEU-approved
Extension program is calculated at a ratio of one (1) CEU for each ten (10)
hours of instruction. If an individual completed a program with a total of ten
hours of instruction, that individual would be eligible to receive one (1) CEU.
If the total instructional time for the program was five (5) hours, the
individual would be eligible for 0.5 CEU.
Question: How much does it cost for someone to apply for and receive
continuing education unit (CEU) credits?
Answer:
A nominal charge is assessed for processing CEU applications.
Currently, the charge is $10 for each CEU application submitted. Payment must be
made by either check or money order and should be made out to the U of A
Cooperative Extension Service.
County Extension Councils (CEC) - for all of these need to link to the CEC Guide - not sure all these need these details
Question: What is a County Extension Council?
Answer: A County Extension Council (CEC) provides advisory leadership,
direction, coordination, and support to the county Extension program. The
Council members serve as advocates for the Extension program and assist in
making decisions to guide the direction of Extension programming in the county.
All county Extension programs are required to appoint and work with a CEC.
The first three factsheets in Section 1 of the online
County Extension Council Guide
provide more information about what a CEC, how it is structured and the
responsibilities of the Council.
Overview of Extension and the Importance of the County Extension
Council
County Extension Council
Responsibilities of County Extension Council
Question: Who should be on the County Extension Council?
Answer: Each county identifies 9 to 12 members to serve on the CEC. The
County Judge appoints 1/3 of the council members. A successful Council has a
diverse membership representing the population and demographics of the county.
Factsheet 4 - Identifying, Selecting and Recruiting Members in
Section 1 of the online County Extension Council Guide explains how to
involve county clientele in the CEC. Factsheets 5 -7 in Section 1 are
examples and forms to help your manage your CEC Membership.
Factsheet 5: Example 1: Membership Grid with Sample Classifications
Factsheet 6: Form 1: Membership Grid (Using County Classifications)
Factsheet 7: Form 2: County Extension Council Membership List
Question: What is a County Extension Council Sub-Committee?
Answer: A committee is a group of people selected from a population,
community, or group to study or act on a particular matter. The County Extension
Council (CEC) provides guidance for the total county Extension program. The CEC
sub-committees are program or issues committees which address a specific subject
matter. Each CEC has four standard sub-committees representing the four program
areas of the Cooperative Extension Service including, Agriculture and Natural
Resources (ANR), Family and Consumer Sciences (FCS), 4-H and Youth Development
(4-H), and Community and Economic Development (CED). Factsheet 2 - County
Extension Council, in the online County Extension Council Guide illustrates a
typical CEC and sub-committee structure. There are 10 factsheets in the online
CEC Guide to help you work effectively with a CEC sub-committee.
Question: How do I keep from being overwhelmed by all the great ideas
generated by my County Extension Council or sub-committee?
Answer: A subcommittee with a thoughtfully selected membership will generate
lots of energy, ideas, and recommendations. There are four steps you can take to
use to make sure that you are addressing the most important recommendations made
by the County Extension Council in your Individual Plan of Work. They are
Prepare, Review the facts, Prioritize, and Develop a Plan of Action.
a. Prepare for the meeting. Factsheet 2 - Preparing for Committee
Meetings and Factsheet 5 - Identifying Critical Issues in Section 3 of the
online County Extension Council Guide will help you prepare for a committee
meeting.
b. Review the facts and situational data (demographics, statistics,
audiences) related to the issues or program area. Give the discussion
context by background information and statistics about the program area/issue
during the meeting, before the committee begins brainstorming ideas. Factsheet 2
- Program Area and Issue Committee Program Planning Worksheet in Section 3 of
the County Extension Council Guide is a tool you can use during the subcommittee
meeting to guide the issue discussion. To find background information and
statistics about a program area:
Ask a subject matter faculty member or specialist for help.
Use existing statistics such as:
Demographics and Community Profiles - Community and Economic
Development produces a County Profiles for each county. These
profiles and other demographic information may be found on this
page.
Arkansas Agriculture - Agriculture Works for Arkansas.
Statistics about Arkansas agriculture.
Kids Count Data Book. Statistics about children and youth.
http://datacenter.kidscount.org/data/bystate/ StateLanding.aspx?state=AR.
Arkansas Families Links on the Family and Consumer Sciences
webpage provides information and statistics about Arkansas
families.
c. Prioritize the recommendations made by the subcommittee members.
The
Nominal Group Process can help the committee determine which recommendations are
the most important. The Nominal Group Process is explained in Factsheet –
Creative Group Discussions in Section 3 of the County Extension Council Guide.
It is the responsibility of the committee chair to present the top three to five
committee recommendations during the County Extension Council planning
committee.
The County Extension Council will consider the recommendations made by all
the sub-committees. If you have four sub-committees, the CEC will have 12 to 20
recommendations to consider. Using a prioritization process like the Nominal
Group Process the CEC will rank the recommendations in priority order.
d. Develop a Plan of Action. Once the CEC identifies the most important
recommendations and approves specific recommendations from each committee. The
sub-committee will meet a second time, after the CEC meets, to develop a plan of
work for the recommendations. Factsheet 8 – Committee Action Plan in Section 3
of the County Extension Council Guide is a tool to help you develop a plan of
work with the committee. Each County Extension Agent will develop a Plan of Work
in AIMS based on the recommendation of the committee and CEC.
Question: How do I know if the County Extension Council is on track?
Answer: Go to Factsheet 5 - Assessment Tool for County Extension Councils in
Section 5 of the County Extension Council Guide. It can help county Extension
staff determine if all the requirements for a County Extension Council are being
met.
Question: What resources can help me with the County Extension Council?
Answer: The online County Extension Council Guide has six sections with
factsheets, tools, and forms to help you understand and guide the advisory
leadership process in your county. There is a hard copy and CD of the guide in
every county Extension office.
The Strengthening Extension Advisory Leadership (SEAL) curriculum located at
http://srpln.msstate.edu/seal/ has online curriculum to help you train County
Extension Council members. The curriculum is categorized by year. The curriculum
for each year includes three to four training modules and each module has three
to four lesson plans.
Course Proposals and Approval
Question: I want to offer a course for employees as part of In-service
training which is covered by PSD budget. How do I do that?
Answer: The training calendar is July 1 - June 30 each year. In May, we announce
the call for training proposals and provide an application form with
instructions. Training should be aligned with documented need and proposals must
include the proposed budget and justification. Approvals with all or partial
funding are sent out the following month. Courses, workshops, or field
demonstrations that are not requesting PSD funding do not need to submit a
proposal to us.
Question: My course has been approved. How do I get its information into the
In-Service Training system?
Answer: This year the Program and Staff Development department added all
course information to the In-Service Training system. You are encouraged to
review your course description and identify any needed revisions or changes to
the Program and Staff Development department.
For national Extension courses, check out the eXtension.org website and their
online course sites at
http://pdc.extension.org (for Extension employees) and
http://campus.extension.org (public courses).
Course Enrollment
Question: Where do I find courses related to my work?
Answer: Go to the In-Service Training system at
http://inservice.uaex.edu. This
login is the same as your intranet login. In-Service Training contains a catalog
of courses that Extension offers employees. It includes courses delivered in the
classroom or field, via Centra web conferencing, or via our online course
platform at http://courses.uaex.edu. Once you've submitted your enrollment
request for a particular course, your supervisor will need to approve your
request before you are officially enrolled.
For national Extension courses, check out the eXtension.org website and their
online course sites at
http://pdc.extension.org (for Extension employees) and
http://campus.extension.org (public courses).
Question: Where do I see what I've enrolled in this training year?
Answer: You can see the Extension courses you've enrolled in via the In-Service
Training system. Go to All Employee Level Options #2: List My Training Schedule.
You will see all courses you've completed and ones you're enrolled in.
Question: I'm an instructor. How can I see how many participants are enrolled
in my class today?
Answer: Go to the In-Service Training system at
http://inservice.uaex.edu.
Select All Employee Level Options #6: List Training Opportunities and Attendees.
Select the course and the participant list will display. If the course has

waiting to be approved. Alternatively, go to your Instructor Level Options #7,
List of Your Training Attendees, select your course, and you will see a list of
attendees, minus those awaiting supervisor approval.
Question: I'm an instructor. Will I know if anyone drops out?
Answer: When an employee cancels participation in a course, the supervisor
is notified by email. The instructor is not notified, so it is recommended that
the instructor keeps his/her eye on the participant list via in-service
training. The instructor can also email the list of participants prior to the
course and request that they personally let the instructor know if they will not
be participating.
Question: I'm an instructor for a course. Do I need to do anything when my
course ends?
Answer: Yes, you need to submit participation or completion for each
participant. You should receive an automatically generated email periodically
until you submit the attendance information. Once you have reviewed and
confirmed your participant's attendance or course completion (such as passing a
final course exam in an online course) go to the In-Service Training system at
http://inservice.uaex.edu. Select Instructor-Level Options #08 Submit Training
Attendance and then select the course. A list of participants will be displayed
with check off options noting their attendance and whether they passed. If they
did not attend or pass, clear the check off box. It is important to submit
accurate completion records for your students so they can receive credit in the
Professional Development online database.
Question: Where do I find a transcript of courses I've attended?
Answer: The Professional Development online database holds records of an
employee's professional development activities, professional service, and
achievement, recognition, or awards. Once a course listed in In-Service Training
closes, that system automatically reminds the instructor to submit attendance or
completion. After the instructor submits grades through In-Service Training,
those records are sent to the Professional Development online database.
Faculty Leadership Program
Question: What is the Faculty Leadership Program?
Answer: The Faculty Leadership Program is an intensive leadership
development program for Extension faculty. The purpose of the program is to
build a skilled leadership base within the University of Arkansas Division of
Agriculture Cooperative Extension Service that is knowledgeable about
organizational issues and programs to ensure that Extension has a viable future.

New Employee Orientation
Question: Does Arkansas Extension provide any sort of orientation for new
employees?
Answer: Yes, we recognize the critical need to orient new hires
within the first 12 months of employment. Our orientation program is
referred to now as "onboarding" as it helps to get new employees "onboard". The program has evolved
and changed over the years in response to organizational needs. Our onboarding
process is currently in the process of being redesigned. The next face to face
event for new hires will be held on October 8th at the Little Rock State Office.
It is required for anyone hired since October 2008 who has not attended any
formal new employee orientation (the last one was October 20, 2008). This is
only one of several components of the onboarding process. Effective orientation
begins the first day on the job and is the responsibility of the employee's
supervisor.
Question: How do I sign up for the new employee orientation course on October
8th?
Answer: You can enroll in this workshop called "Check-in and Tune-up for New
Hires" through the In-Service Training system at
http://inservice.uaex.edu.
Question: I've been here over 6 months and don't have to time to attend the
orientation in Little Rock. Is it really, really required?
Answer: Please discuss this with your supervisor, or if you're an agent,
with your District Director. It is officially required for all full-time
employees. You will need supervisor approval and justification to not attend. If
you have less than a 100% appointment, discuss whether you should attend with
your supervisor.
Question: I have questions about new employee onboarding. Who should I
contact?
Answer: For questions about the program being designed or the October 8
workshop in Little Rock, contact Lisa Ferris, Program and Staff Development,
lferris@uaex.edu,

Moodle software on request.
Question: I'm an instructor and my online course just closed. How do I send
completion information to the participants' professional development records?
Answer: Currently our online course system and In-Service Training system do
not integrate with each other. However, the online Moodle courses are entered
into the In-Service Training system when they are approved, just like the face
to face courses or field demonstrations. Simply access the In-Service Training
system at http://inservice.uaex.edu, find the Instructor Level Options for
submitting attendance and follow the same process listed above for submitting
face to face workshop attendance or completion.
Professional Growth, Development, Records
Question: Does Arkansas Extension have a planning process for an employee's
professional development and advancement?
Answer: Yes. Download the MSWord document "Professional
Growth: A Workbook for Developing a Professional Development Plan for Extension
Workers" to get started. Share your
thinking and responses with your supervisor(s).

complete?
Answer: Our Professional Development online database is the repository for your
completed in-service training, professional services, professional achievements
and awards, and other professional development activities. Access it at
http://profdev.uaex.edu.
For questions about using the Professional Development online database, log into
the system and refer to the detailed User's Guide.
Question: I recently took an Extension offered in-service training class. It
does not show up in the Professional Development online database under my "CES
In-Service Activities" report. How come?
Answer: The Professional Development online database imports information
about CES in-service training classes that you have completed directly from the
CES In-Service Training system. The key word in that sentence is "completed.”
Even though you took the class and successfully completed it, the instructor of
that class must go into the CES In-Service Training database and mark you as
having completed the class before it will report you as having completed the
class. If you have just completed the class, give the instructor a few days to
mark you as having completed. If the information doesn’t show up in your "CES
In-Service Activities” report after a week or two, check with the instructor to
see whether he or she has done so. If the instructor has and the information is
still not showing up in the Professional Development database, contact the IT
call center.
Question: I can see the CES In-Service courses I took listed in the
Professional Development online database. But some of my professional
development activities are not listed in the system. What do I do?
Answer: Once you log into the Professional Development online database at
http://profdev.uaex.edu, you should see links to Professional Development
Activities, Professional Services, and Professional Achievement. Click on the
appropriate link and on the next screen that displays you should see a "Add an
activity" link. Follow instructions to add your activity. Once you log into the
system, you'll see a detailed User's Guide.
State Extension Program Advisory Committees
Question: How do I start a State Extension Program Advisory Committee?
Answer: The
State Extension Advisory
Committee Guidelines outline the
process and has forms to request a SEA Committee, nominate committee members,
determine mission, goals, and objectives, and list committee members.
Question: What resources are available to help me work with a State Extension
Program Advisory Committee?
Answer: The online County Extension Council Guide is designed for use with
county programs, but includes resources that can also be used to understand and
guide the advisory leadership process.
The Strengthening Extension Advisory Leadership (SEAL) curriculum located at
http://srpln.msstate.edu/seal/
has online curriculum to help you support advisory leadership members. The
curriculum is categorized by year. The curriculum for each year includes three
to four training modules and each module has three to four lesson plans.
Work Planning and Reporting (IPOW, Plan of Work, Logic Model, AIMS)
Question: What is an Individual Plan of Work (IPOW)?
Answer: Each county and state faculty member is responsible for creating an
Individual Plan of Work during October of each year, for the October-September
reporting year (the federal fiscal year).
Arkansas Extension administrators have identified the key Planned Programs
that best reflect Extensions’ overall mission and the needs of Arkansas
citizens. The compressive plan for each program is maintained in the Arkansas
Information Management System (AIMS), which is your tool for creating your IPOW.
Question: How do I create my Individual Plan of Work?
Answer: Creating an IPOW requires that you have a discussion with your
supervisor for consideration and direction regarding the priorities for the
investment of your time for the next year. This will help you identify which
Planned Programs you should include in your IPOW. It will also clarify how much
of a time commitment you should plan for.
Once you and your supervisor have identified your educational priorities,
then you can log onto AIMS and review the Plans of Work for each Planned
Program, to identify how your time should be planned and reported.
The Planned Program Plan of Work includes goals and objectives that include a
series of educational activities, events, and/or experiences, and other methods
designed to help targeted audiences to reach a goal (client change level). In
most cases, multiple educational strategies are used to teach this audience. The
end result is an outcome or client level change. These client change levels
include: behavior change/adoption of best practice or new technology, change in
attitudes, development of skills, or increase in knowledge. Evaluation
strategies are purposefully developed to measure toward one of these client
change levels.
The exact deadline for the completion and submission of the IPOW is at your
supervisor's discretion.
Question: Will my Individual Plan of Work be used in my performance
appraisal?
Answer: Yes. You will be asked to review your plan of work, results, and
impact reports with your supervisor.
Question: What is Accountability?
Answer: Accountability is the ethical obligation to demonstrate and take
responsibility for performance in light of agreed expectations. The obligation
imposed by law or lawful order or regulation on an officer or other person for
keeping accurate records of time, activities, property, documents, and funds and
appropriately providing information on the results. Arkansas Extension has
several accountability systems to support these efforts. For programmatic
activities, these systems include AIMS and the ES237. Arkansas Extension is
accountable to our stakeholders in the communities we serve, to our state and
federal partners, and to boards and foundations, all who supply our funding.
Question: What is Client Change?
Answer: The desired change in clientele anticipated or expected as a result
of planning and implementing a program.
Question: What is Reporting?
Answer: Providing identified information or evidence as to the
implementation of plans, program investments efforts, and results.
Question: What is a Plan of Work (for a Planned Program)?
Answer: Organized information on how issues or areas are addressed by
Extension. Plans are based on the logic model (for program planning and
evaluation) and include:
Inputs = Your time (this allows us to produce reports regarding how
much we invest in personnel time and dollars for each of our Planned
Programs).
Outputs = What you do (direct or indirect method) & your audience
(clientele contacts & demographics)
Outcomes = The program impact. Outcomes identify and measure the
desired results of the program . . . the client response. Outcomes in
the logic model are classified at three levels:
Short-Term Outcomes (Learning): Short-term changes we expect, which
usually include changes in beliefs, attitudes and/or knowledge. This is
the lowest level of impact, and is the easiest to measure. Measurement
usually includes changes in knowledge, beliefs, and/or intent to adopt a
different practice or behavior, as a result of educational programming.
Medium-Term Outcomes (Action): Skill development or practice
adoption. The ability to perform a specific task or function or adopt a
new practice demonstrates a higher level of program impact.
Long-Term Outcomes (Conditions): This is the highest level of impact,
and is the most difficult to measure. It should reflect the ultimate
purpose of the educational program – it answers the question, so what?
This level of evaluation includes changes in social, economic, civic or
environmental conditions.
Question: What is a Logic Model?
Answer: A logic model is a depiction of a program showing what the program
will do (outputs) and what it will accomplish (outcomes). A program logic model
describes the:
Situation
Environment
Inputs
Outputs
Outcomes
Question: Who is a Target Audience?
Answer: The group of people who is the primary target of the planned
program.
