Goals and Principles

Goals: Community College Green Initiative

1. Map current situation in terms of CC "green" programs/activities related to workforce training.

2. Be direct and upfront with each other with questions, alternatives, concerns.
   
3. Clarify roles and goals initially and throughout the project. Processes, procedures, activities and decisions should all be driven by the agreed upon goals of the project, as understand across all the groups involved.
   
4. Revisit how well we are adhering to role expectations and agreements at least once a month.
