Business Resources

ALVSCE Business Officers are essential and vital contributors to the Division’s mission and vision. The expectations for these positions are high: professionalism, mastery of work, stewardship and partnership in furtherance of the Division’s strategic goals. Business and operational efficiency and effectiveness are stated goals that we embrace as necessary to achieve the strategic intent and maximize the impact of the Division. ALVSCE Business Officers inspire their unit colleagues to provide outstanding business services to faculty, researchers and staff and they join with their peers to foster public stewardship, accountability, and the highest standards of professional ethics. Continuous professional development, mentoring and raising the performance bar are a core value in ALVSCE.

Business Resources has been created to support Business Officers and Unit Heads in a partnership to achieve these goals.
