5 minutes | The Year Ahead | Austin Munsell | 📆 Yearly Timeline of Council Activities : this page in the Council Handbook gives a month-by-month breakdown of Council activities, as well as who is responsible for those activities. Terms begin in July and end in June. In June and July there is typically little Council work outside of the Chair’s responsibilities. Joint TAC/UAC meetings are held twice a year, once early in the term (usually September) and again towards the end of the term. Workplans are due and presented at the first joint meeting on September 11. Quarterly reports to the Governance Board in August, October, January, and May Cancel December or January meeting? There is a possibility of going bimonthly for the second half of the year. This has not happened for the last few years. We can assess in January. Online member forum in the spring – Council participation is strongly encouraged. Most Council work wraps up in June. Sub-teams complete a retrospective and work to make term-to-term transition as easy as possible. Sub-teams usually meet monthly, although this can vary based on the work and needs of the sub-team (e.g., Testing).
