State Leaders,
Please see the attached documents. The first is a
guide to creating a Talent Search Task Force and the second is a list of Talent
Search Directors by State. We have a tremendous opportunity and
responsibility to guide the changes within HEOA in regards to Talent Search
during the negotiated rule making process. We can also utilize these
changing times to build unity within our state organizations. It will be
imperative that we have a direct and comprehensive message to take to the
Department of Education.
COE staff will be reaching out to various state leaders to
assist with this process in the next couple of weeks. I urge you to read
the Task Force document to share with your board and Talent Search
professionals. I believe this is a great opportunity to generate interest
in our state organizations while accomplishing a national goal, making a real
impact in how the “new” Talent Search will look.
Sincerely,
Heath
