Advisory Groups
The Associate Provost of Online Education receives advice from two advisory groups: The Online Education Executive Committee and the Online Education Advisory Group. While the main function of the Executive Committee consisting of senior administrators is to establish visions and policies, the OLEAG consisting of faculty, staff and students provides insights on implementation. The two groups work in tandem to achieve the university’s mission in online education.
