Program development is often seen as an exciting task, yet daunting one to the person without program development experience.  Program development may involve:

• Creating an entirely new program that has not previously existed

• Transitioning a program from one degree level to another - e.g., from a bachelor's to a master's degree, or from a master's degree to a doctoral degree

• Conducting a needs assessment for the new program both internally and externally

• Reviewing and providing input of documentation for various approvals - institutional approval, state approval body, specialized accrediting body and / or regional or institutional accrediting body

• Assistance to create or modify a program  vision, mission, curricular model, curricular map, assessment plan, course syllabi, budget, start up equipment and materials

I have experience in all aspects of Program Development.  I can be hired to assist in any aspect related to program development.
