The National Standards Sample Clauses

The National Standards. The Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (ADASS) has published a National Standards document in conjunction with key partners including the National Police Chiefs Council (NPCC). This framework is intended to consolidate the experience to date and to further the development of 'Safeguarding Adults at Risk' work throughout England. The implementation of the eleven good practices (Standards) in every local area will lead to the development of consistent, high quality adult protection work across the country. (See Appendix C for a headline copy of the National Standard Framework). This agreement has been produced in compliance with the National Standard Framework, and the signing of this agreement will help the signatories comply with the Framework in particular Standards 1, 4 and 8. It has been recognised that a number of agencies may be involved in different aspects of the care and support of an adult at risk and this agreement will contribute to achieving the aims of building strong multi-agency partnerships at a local level with agreed working practices in response to instances of abuse and neglect. By effective information sharing among the Signatory Organisations and drawing upon partner organisations’ specialist skill sets, all Signatory Organisations can offer the best possible service to safeguard adults at risk and make a positive impact on public protection.

  • General Standards An Assistant Professor will be competent to teach in a particular field, will be current in the literature of that field, and will seek to meet student needs in both the classroom and in non-classroom environments. However, an Assistant may be a junior member of the academic community, with little professional and/or teaching experience. Furthermore, an Assistant may have little experience in curriculum development, committee work, governance, professional and/or community service, etc. In short, an Assistant Professor generally will be new to tenure-track college teaching. For eligibility for promotion from Assistant to Associate Professor, the candidate must have served a minimum of four (4) years at the rank of Assistant Professor, and must show evidence that he/she has grown professionally and consistently has sought to meet student needs, in both the classroom and in non-classroom environments. A successful candidate for the rank of Associate Professor will have remained current in the field, and will have improved his/her teaching in some demonstrable way. He/she also will have demonstrated professional growth in one or more of the following ways: completion of additional appropriate course work (if applicable), attendance at professional conferences, service on campus and/or District committees, professional and/or community service, or, the production of some creative work. Evidence of professional growth will be drawn from a careful analysis of student evaluations and peer evaluations over a period of time, and from a critical reading of materials submitted by the candidate. For promotion from Associate to Professor, the candidate must have served a minimum of four (4) years at the rank of Associate Professor, and must show evidence that he/she has grown professionally to a point where he/she has mastered both a particular field of knowledge and the teaching of that knowledge. A successful candidate must show evidence that he/she consistently has sought to meet student needs, in both the classroom and non-classroom environments. A Professor should be a senior member of the faculty, one who has such substantial experience, knowledge, and skill that he/she could mentor junior faculty in his/her area of expertise. A Professor will have demonstrated all the same kinds of achievements and attributes necessary for promotion to the Associate Professor rank, but in addition will demonstrate that he/she is a leader in some appropriate sense. Evidence of professional growth and leadership will be drawn from a careful analysis of student evaluations and peer evaluations over a period of time, and from a critical reading of materials submitted by the candidate.
