Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to meet with us last week. Thank you to our guest speakers, Anna Bounds and Rachel Crookston, for sharing information on the ALVSCE Late Proposal Policy and Process. I will include the recording of
their presentation below and the supporting documents for your reference. </div>

Confluence</a><a href="https://uarizona.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ACEKB/pages/230195484/Position+Description+Template" target="_blank">,</a> and moving forward, this will be the new format. Please share this with your teams for anyone who will be updating their
position description. We are not asking that all position descriptions be updated to the new format right away, but if someone has a position description that is five (5) years or older, we ask that they use this new template. To remind you, position descriptions
should be reviewed annually, updated as needed, and resubmitted every five (5) years or as duties change. When one of your faculty members has an updated PD, we ask that you send it to Ed and me for approval; I will then update the signature lines and forward
them for final signatures. I will send a final copy back to you and your faculty member once it is completed. </div>
