Administration

Overview

AAM Administration
E-mail (aam@ercwc.org)

Welcome to the Adventure of the American Mind administration page. This section provides the information and documentation necessary to administer the AAM program and is primarily for current AAM partners.

Although the Education and Research Consortium of the Western Carolinas is no longer accepting new partners into the AAM program, visitors are welcome to browse the material listed here.


Partner Handbook (2MB PDF)

The Partner Handbook is the first resource for new directors beginning an AAM program and provides the information and documentation necessary for this phase of program development. It also serves as an ongoing reference guide for directors and staff.
 
For additional information, clarification, and guidance contact the AAM Business Manager.

Partner Meetings

The Education and Research Consortium hosts two AAM Partner meetings per year. The AAM management team uses these meetings as an outlet for providing Directors with Program information such as strategic planning, special project updates, administrative changes, and reports submitted to the Library of Congress. The AAM Partner meetings also provide an excellent forum for Partner Directors to exchange program related ideas and experiences. The Partner Meetings web page provides details on meeting agendas, locations, directions, and lodging options.

Conference Calendar

This calendar of selected educational conferences is provided for the convenience and planning of AAM Partners.

AAM Partner Contact List

The AAM Partner contact list is a link to the wealth of diverse experience and information available from our program directors and their staff. The AAM community is highly collaborative and we urge all current, new and future partners and their staff to make contact with their colleagues.

Collateral Materials

Here AAM Partners can find various documents and templates to assist in the development of web sites, AAM-related documents, and more, and the AAM logo in a variety of file formats.


Quotes from AAM Teachers:
