Defining Success: Goals & Competencies
- Create the space for personal reflection on impact to date and long-term visioning
- Learn about the future you envision
- Basic demographic information
- Background Information
- A one-way interview completed through Spark Hire. The process is simple. We created a few questions for you to answer via webcam or mobile device. You can download the Spark Hire mobile app for your iOS or Android. Please limit interview answers to 3-5 min per question.
- A vision of student success through the creation of a vision board
- Think of this as a vision board for your school/organization that shares the past, the present, and where you hope to be.
- You can only include five artifacts on this vision board. The artifacts should best describe your vision for your school/organization five years from now.
- Each artifact may consist of a 100-word maximum description.
- The intention is not to create new work products but to use existing content, such as photos, social media posts, personal statements, blog posts, or maybe a presentation.
- All artifacts should fit on one page (8.5X11) and be saved as a pdf document to be uploaded or a URL provided.
