UC DAVIS: OFFICE OF ADMINISTRATION September 14, 2006 DEANS, DIRECTORS, DEPARTMENT CHAIRS, AND ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS RE: Business Officer Institute Call for Nominations for November 28-30, 2006, in San Francisco The next session of the Business Officer Institute (BOI), sponsored by the UC Office of the President (UCOP), is scheduled from Tuesday, November 28 to Thursday, November 30, 2006 in San Francisco.(Registration begins Monday, November 27, at 5 p.m.; reception starts at 6 p.m.) Once again, we seek your assistance in identifying and nominating individuals for participation. UCOP is especially interested in individuals who are the lead business officers for their unit. We are also seeking individuals who have broad responsibility for the administrative functions of either an academic or administrative department or have responsibility for key reas of budget, finance, internal controls, human resources, information technology and/or sponsored projects; we are looking for a balanced representation from UC Davis. Staff in both academic and administrative units will benefit from participation in the institute. The Business Officer Institute was established in recognition of the critical role that business officers play in a rapidly changing business environment. The UC business environment is characterized by localized decision-making authority, increased regulatory interest and oversight, emphasis on risk-taking and innovation, and increased complexity. UC Davis has been particularly responsive to this opportunity by supporting the participation of 586 individuals in the BOI to date. The Davis campus and medical center have a limited number of participant slots per BOI session. The Office of the President covers the cost of the institute, including private room and most meals. Departments are expected to cover the cost of travel, incidentals and two evening meals. Additional information on program content, UC Davis business management learning opportunities, a link to the Office of the President BOI web site, and other logistical details can be found at http://sdps.ucdavis.edu/boi.htm. To nominate an individual for participation in the BOI, please email the following information to the Davis campus BOI coordinator, Chuck Yannacone, Staff Development & Professional Services (cgyannacone@ucdavis.edu): Participant: name, title, title code, department, email address, telephone number, whether nominee is from an academic or administrative unit. Supervisor: name, title, email address and telephone number. Nominator: name, title, email address and telephone number. Rationale for your nomination.
