Project Golden Path
Presenter: Don Padgett, Notre Dame
Project Golden Path is a systemic initiative focused on developing and retaining
qualified staff by:
- Creating clear career paths.
Currently, technical staff seeking advancement are "pushed" toward becoming
managers since there are no clear paths for technical advancement. A primary
deliverable is to recognize and reward the development of technical skills
necessary for job success. A second deliverable is to demonstrate lateral career
paths for those who want a breadth of organizational experience.
- Developing commonality and consistency across OIT jobs and job families.
The OIT inherited various approaches to personnel from prior organizational
mergings. The approaches manifest themselves in differences in titles and
professional development opportunities. Another Golden Path deliverable is the
creation of consistent position descriptions across the organization, providing
a more systematic way to support both professional development and performance
review.
Qualification Matrix
A qualification matrix was developed to assist in identifying the requirements
for the different job families at each career tier. A "Job Family" is a
grouping of jobs based on common skill sets, competencies, and responsibilities
that may span a number of levels within the organization.
- Infrastructure Engineering / Administration
- Application Development / Integration
- Content Development / Integration
- Customer Services/Consultants
- Organization Services
- Management
