Included in the process, as it was determined in the first administrative staff meeting that the staff were far from the Quality Culture and had not benefited from the practical faculty education and training at all. |
As a result of the meetings and events, the important roles of the administrative staff in the Quality Assurance system and the contributions they made without realizing it were conveyed. Thinking experiments were conducted to show development within the same scope. It was conveyed how they would contribute to the Quality Development Process and follow a more active path, and expectations and goals were specified. The work is followed up in the next meeting. In all the events in which they were involved in the correspondence and implementation process, they were provided with opportunities to follow the final products as valuable participants, to meet with the productions they had been in the same building for years and had only touched, to be involved in a cultural event, and to be involved in art.
