Introduction to the Chapter Operations Guide (COG)


What is the Chapter Operations Guide (COG)? The COG helps PSE chapters operate effectively. The COG is a collection of the various administrative and programming activities that PSE chapters should be utilizing in order to provide their members with the highest level of value and ensure chapter longevity. Using the COG will help keep chapters focused and accountable in all areas of operations. Why should chapters use the COG? The COG facilitates the creation and implementation of chapter goals The COG provides framework for operational and financial success as well as accurate IRS reporting The COG supports the continued growth and development of chapter leaders and members The COG provides practical experience with writing business reports and meeting deadlines The COG provides an opportunity to build a portfolio of professional writing samples that can benefit members in their career search The COG gives the chapters an opportunity to learn strategic planning and implementation The COG allows chapters to gain support from PSE HQ when specific needs arise The COG provides the framework for chapters to qualify for PSE national awards and recognition

Consider COG your chapters employee handbook - your PSE real-world operations course. In the pages of this document, much like an employee handbook, youll find information and requirements that are the keys to your chapters success in the 2013-2014 COG year. The COG includes vital information such as: Instructions on how to complete and submit reports A comprehensive list of PSE mandatory and suggested reports Content and format expectations for all reports Point parameters for all reports
