The classes are meant to be attended in sequence, and are either optional or required--Optional classes: Data Excel and Brown Bag Sessions, and Required classes: Performance Measures and Writing The OBE Annual Report.

There will be time for Q&A near the end of class, so bring program specific questions and any documentation that is helpful. This class is for every agency that wants to learn from others. Peer mentoring is the focus, so this is a time to share information about your successes and improved processes. Programs who have participated in peer review in previous cycles have reported a significant improvement in their understanding of the annual report, so particpation is strongly encouraged. Agencies that are in the transitional program should bring a practice annual report, if they are at that stage of transition. There are no resource materials for this class. The topics for the agenda are set by participants. Participants are encouraged to bring your lunch; no food or drink will be provided.
