The parties agree that there shall be two programs of instruction (USD and SDSU) leading to the awarding of BSN degrees and one program (USD) leading to AS degrees in nursing, and one program for respiratory care (DSU) leading to AS or BS degrees. The parties recognize that the public's needs / future circumstances may require program changes. This Agreement is not intended to restrict the BOR from responding to such needs and circumstances by making program changes which they, in their sole discretion, believe will more efficiently or appropriately provide health care graduates to meet the needs of the population of South Dakota.
Establishment of Programs. A. A Peer Assistance and Review Program (“PAR program”) shall be established effective July 1, 2000, to provide services for any unit member referred as a result of an unsatisfactory annual or biennial evaluation or for any unit member who may wish to voluntarily participate. The PAR and Teacher Induction programs are designed solely for the purpose of improving teaching, not terminating teachers. The confidentiality of all participants in the program shall be respected at all times.
