Austin, TX -- (ReleaseWire) -- 09/19/2018 --The National Institute for Staff and Organizational Development (NISOD) collaborated with the Consortium for Belize Educational Cooperation (COBEC) to provide 15 Belize colleges and universities with access to NISOD's resources and benefits.

During the 2018 COBEC summer conference, Bossier Parish Community College (BPCC) Chancellor, Dr. Rick Bateman, surprised the Belize colleges and universities with an announcement about the NISOD memberships. COBEC's summer conference is an international gathering of prominent Belize academic leaders and their U.S. partners.

"NISOD's contribution of membership resources to the Belize higher education community is truly a gift beyond measure. 15 institutions along with the Belize Ministry of Education will now be able to scale professional growth opportunities to every faculty and staff member on every campus," said Allison Martin, director of institutional effectiveness initiatives at BPCC. "We are so proud to have been a part of helping NISOD make the connection."

NISOD members have access to many faculty-focused resources and benefits, including Innovation Abstracts, webinars, workshops, conference scholarships, student contests, the annual conference, the Excellence Awards, the Promising Places to Work in Community Colleges Awards, the annual virtual conference, and corporate discounts.

"We are thrilled to welcome the Belize colleges and universities to the NISOD family," said Edward J. Leach, NISOD's executive director. "By being a part of our dynamic community, these institutions are now able to provide their faculty, administrators, and staff with access to our outstanding professional learning resources."
