SUMMARY:Fall Seminar - All About Staffing
DESCRIPTION:Join ACA\, New England\, Kim Aycock\, Volunteer Co-Chair of ACA’s Project Real Job and owner of Camp 2 Campus Learning Solutions\, and researcher Daniel Shore for a day designed to dive deep into topics related to staffing! Our program will help you understand current trends and strategies in staffing \, explore staffing challenges and successes at camp with your colleagues\, and think about internships at camp. \n\n \nThank you\nto our seminar sponsor \nVital Camps\nCamp Orientation Online \n\n  \nWhether your camp is struggling with staffing or has been lucky in this area and wants to stay that way\, this day is for you! There will be time for learning\, information sharing\, and networking. The agenda will include: \n\nKeynote by Daniel Shore & Kim Aycock: Meet Staff Where They Are Rather than Where You Wish They Were – Unanswered emails. Requests (demands) for time-off. Over-involved parents. What’s the matter with young people today? Most likely nothing! We have more in common with this cohort of staff than one might think; their needs are just expressed differently. We have an opportunity to communicate that we are in touch with the times and yet have a handle on timeless wisdom. Thus\, we have to demonstrate that we understand the perspectives of those we hope to recruit\, hire\, and retain without compromising important vision\, values\, and views. Throughout this keynote session\, data and feedback gathered directly from staff will guide us to meeting them where they are rather than where we wish they were.\n\n\nAttendee-driven interactive think tank on key staffing-related topics that matter to camps led by Kim Aycock.\nSession and panel facilitated by Kim Aycock: Bringing interns to your camp  – What’s the difference between internships\, practicums\, and independent studies for students/camp staff and how do you think about integrating this into your camp’s planning. \n\nWho: Camp professionals involved in any aspect of staff recruitment\, hiring\, and retention – from directors to HR professionals and everyone in between! \nWhen: Wednesday\, October 30\, 2019\, 10:00 am – 3:30 pm \n\nPlease note that as of 10/18/19 there has been an update to the content and speakers for our morning keynote. We apologize for the change\, but are excited about this great new session we are offering! \n\n  \n \nParticipants will receive 5 Continuing Education Credits (CECs) for their full participation. \n\nAbout the Presenters\n \nKim Aycock\, MST\, has 30+ years of experience developing young people with skills robots are unable to do.
