Regional Entry Level Institute (RELI)

 

 

The Regional Entry Level Institute (RELI) is an intensive professional development experience for entry-level professionals who aspire to mid-level positions in housing and residence life. RELI is open to housing/residence life professionals with one to three years of experience. Participants are clustered with other participants and a faculty member who is a mid- to senior-level professional. In an effort to maintain the mentoring environment and ensure faculty/participant engagement, approximately 30 participants and 10 faculty are selected per year. Based on application numbers and space, we may increase that if we are able to.

 

The individuals participating in RELI as either Faculty or Participants will spend time in a classroom setting as well as individual/one on one time. The goal is to make this a professional and personal experience for all individuals involved.  We will continue to provide presentations and discussions on the following competency areas:

  • Budget & Finance
  • Communication & Social Media
  • Contracts & Occupancy Management
  • Emergency Protocols & Preparation
  • Facilities Management
  • Management & Supervision at the Next Level
  • Policies & Legal Issues
  • Politics & Savviness
  • Program Development & Assessment at the Next Level
  • Theory & Competencies
