Theme 4: Professional Development
Employees are Maryland Cooperative Extension’s most valuable asset. To enhance the effectiveness of extension employees, the organization must provide them with opportunities for development and training that focus on core competencies. Core competencies are defined as the basic knowledge, attitudes, skills, and behaviors that contribute to excellence in extension educational programs. These competencies may include information and education delivery, diversity/pluralism/multiculturalism, and subject matter. Professional development opportunities may include formal and non-formal education, mentoring, coaching, job enrichment, and other methods.
