1 Graduate Faculty Committee Doc. No Approved February 16, 2015 Review of the Graduate Certificate in Applied Gerontology This report is a component of the periodic review process overseen by the Dean of the Graduate School. Graduate Program Review Subcommittee/GFC Representative Sheila Feay-Shaw, Associate Professor, Music Program Representative Rachelle Alioto, Director of Education and Programming, Center for Aging and Translational Research Summary of Certificate Program The Graduate Certificate in Applied Gerontology is a multidisciplinary, 18-credit program administered by the Center for Aging and Translational Research. The goal of the program is to prepare professionals to work in the field of aging in a variety of settings, depending on the student s professional discipline and career goals. It integrates gerontology into the student s primary discipline by providing a strong foundation in gerontology coursework. Students may complete the program as a non-degree student or as a degree-seeking student. Beginning spring 2015, students can complete the program entirely online. In 2013, the coordination of the Graduate Certificate in Applied Gerontology moved from the Center on Age and Community (now defunct) to the newly established Center for Aging and Translational Research (CATR). CATR is housed jointly in the Helen Bader School of Social Welfare and the College of Health Sciences; however, students from all disciplines are accepted into the program. I. Pro gram Summary of Key Issues The certificate program is currently managed and overseen by Rachelle Alioto, Director of Education and Programming, Center for Aging and Translational Research. With an increasingly aging population, the Center has identified a true need for people particularly interested in the future of this population. Rachelle works as recruiter, advisor, and curriculum coordinator currently for the certificate program. The Gerontology Association recently came out with competencies for people in this field that need to be addressed in the curriculum. A meeting was held with faculty about curriculum to determine which of these were being met as courses were currently structured. The certificate coordinator has a concern that Faculty connected with the certificate do not see the big picture of how their course contributes to these issues. She is concerned that not everyone believes in an active learning perspective, including small group discussion, and real life encounters with the
2 Graduate Faculty Committee Doc. No. 1350, p. 2 Approved February 16, 2015 population being discussed. The certificate has the potential to be cutting edge with latest research and technology across the disciplines that are involved, but she finds it hard to get some faculty to change their teaching pedagogy. Since these courses sit in the departments and course review takes place there, providing input to evaluation and revision seems to be somewhat of a concern. Most of the students in the program are in a field related to aging often with a field placement component or clinical experience with aging. Forty-three completers were surveyed to see how they feel about the certificate. The majority of them are currently working in field of aging and would highly recommend the certificate. II. Curriculum Faculty come from a variety of schools and colleges, and across departments which creates a rich diversity of courses. All of the courses needed for the certificate program have been offered on a rotating basis. Next fall, for the first time, we will encounter a need for faculty change for a core course. Jan Bitzen has been teaching Nursing 760 The Processes of Aging, which is a core requirement. She is retiring in January. This leaves the program uncertain as to who will be teaching the course. There has been some thought to it becoming an online course offering, but there is a need to meet with the dean or associate dean from Nursing to discuss it. An undergraduate certificate in also being explored which may produce additional issues. The rotation for the core courses has always been on opposite semesters to allow continuous points of entry (Fall Process of Aging and Spring Social Issue and Policy Analysis: Aging). All elective courses then have been offered in rotation over a three year period. Electives are set and sent out to students prior to each semester to help students know what is offered that fits the program. Frequency of course scheduling Core Courses 6 credits NURS 760 SOC WRK 851 Processes of Aging (3 credits) An overview of the processes of aging including biological, psychological, and sociological perspectives. Emphasis on theories of development, gerontological research findings, and health services applications.

No. 1350, p. 4 Approved February 16, 2015 Electives 6 credits Students select six credits from the remaining Choice Core classes and additional electives, which could include a "Practicum" in the student's home department or area of choice. III. Facult y Faculty are recruited into a relationship with the program often based on research interests, or grants related to work within applied gerontology. The Director has been working with researchers who relate to the work of the Center and through that relationship, faculty have been invited to become connected to the certificate program offerings as an instructor. A new committee needs to be formed for oversight of the educational component. Scott Strath, Interim Director of Center for Aging and Translational Research, is currently overseeing things. The advisory committee met three times during spring 2012 and implemented some changes to curriculum in Several people on that group have left the university now or are moving toward retirement so there is a need to identify a new committee. IV. Students Students are recruited to the certificate in a variety of ways from hanging banners in the union, putting posters in buildings where students with majors that may be related would have classes, to meetings with advisors in the disciplines from which students have primarily come including nursing, health sciences, social work. Rachelle also meets with advisors to see how it could fit into other programs on campus. She responds to phone calls from students and invites them to come in to talk about the program. She also reviews all of the class enrollment lists for the core courses and contacts students who may have an interest in adding the certificate to their current program. Typically, students come in to talk about the program, what they want to do with it before completing admission forms and applying to university. Every semester Rachelle reviews student transcripts to monitor for progress. She works closely with advisors in various disciplines to identify ways to double dip in applying courses to the certificate and other programs. The table below contains enrollment and completion data for the years since the last review:

The certificate is reflected on the transcript for all but 8 of these students. 2 Student was officially admitted to the program and certificate has been conferred on his or her transcript. 3 Student did not complete the program. Students have three years from the date of admission to complete the program. 4 Student completed Declaration Form and later provided written notification of withdrawal. The first semester of tracking this information was fall 2013.
6 Graduate Faculty Committee Doc. No. 1350, p. 6 Approved February 16, 2015 V. Resources Two specific areas of resource need were outlined in the self-study besides the faculty issue included above. Scholarship funding has been provided through the Helen Bader Foundation for students to complete the certificate. However, students who withdraw or discontinue the certificate often cite financial reasons. Additional scholarship funding is being sought. While the certificate is being managed through the Center for Aging and Translational Research, funding comes through research grants and foundation support. In order for the certificate to continue, a more formalized financial structure needs to be developed. Reviewer s Comments It is apparent that there is a considerable need for this area of certificate education. The multidisciplinary approach enables a rich program. The faculty trend of retirements and position vacancies may make it difficult to continue unless a strategic plan is developed. Since the program draws faculty from various programs across campus, it is difficult to know where this would sit. There are several Deans that could be involved in a discussion of how this certificate is being valued in curricular strategic planning. Rachelle does an amazing job of managing the program and has a true devotion to the success of the mission as well as the program. Students are completing the program in 2-3 years which seems reasonable. She dedicates considerable time to advising and mentoring within the program. Program Response (Optional) Recommendation(s) for Action 1. The Certificate in Applied Gerontology should be continued through AY The next review of the certificate should take place in fall 2019, and should be a full review.
