Student Risk Management is an excellent place to begin before planning any activity. There are a number of resources available to assist your club, and staff can provide presentations and information on topics such as risk management, effective decision making, hazing, conflict management, hosting events with alcohol, higher education legal trends, fundraising, budget design, marketing plans, retreat planning, designing strategic initiatives, planning safe travel, and strategies for complying with university policies, rules, and procedures.
Transition Resources
- Officer Transition Checklist
- Officers and members in student organizations often change. A smooth transition is the responsibility of both the outgoing and incoming members of an organization, working closely with the advisor. Successfully transitioning your club acts as a means to provide training for new officers, closure for outgoing leaders, and helps the organization maintain consistency from year to year.
- Operations Manual
- An Operations Manual can be a valuable tool for everyone in the student organization you advise. This document serves as a resource for the membership as well as new officers who may be planning an organizational event or activity, or who is making a decision that might impact the organization. It also serves as an important record of the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set by your organization, and can be an effective tool for training and transitioning new leaders.
