Middle Management Institute
MMI 2015, University of HoustonThe TACAC Middle Management Institute (MMI) is a professional development program designed for both current and aspiring managers working on the post-secondary side of our profession. MMI program attendees can expect a rigorous curriculum built around dynamic educational sessions and collaborative learning experiences between program participants.We are excited to announce that for MMI 2019, we will be offering a one-day track for secondary counselors, community-based organization staff, and independent educational consultants. *Participants must be TACAC members and be current with membership dues. Capacity for secondary/CBO/IEC participants will be limited.* Our Program While sessions change from year to year, TACAC’s Middle Management Institute commits to addressing three main themes from a managerial perspective each year:
We believe that these three cornerstones of our program allow us to create a new curriculum each year while ensuring consistency in the quality and overall mission of our program. Professionals attending MMI can also expect to participate in our intensive case studies. This part of our program requires cooperation, critical thinking, and the ability to work under pressure as we simulate situations that managers face in admissions and recruitment offices. Our case studies require small groups (simulating admissions offices) to work together while attempting to achieve a common goal under strict deadlines. As our profession necessitates, this fast paced simulation will also ask that you are prepared for the unexpected! I walked away from MMI with so many tips on how to be a more effective supervisor. The sessions left me very introspective about the types of things I could implement in the office to create a more effective and rewarding work space for my team. The presenters provided really great information about how to manage different personality styles and how to advocate on behalf of others. I'm so happy I had the opportunity to attend! - Natalie Garza, Elon University To see our conference schedules, please Click here for Secondary Schedule (includes IECs and CBOs) Click here for College/University Schedule Conference sessions will be made available in early December 2018.
