If you are interested in the more dialogic and practice-oriented side of PACS, you need to check out ��ý's very own Playback Ensemble. They do fantastic work in promoting critical conversations and difficult dialogues using the tools of theater. They are having their first information session this Saturday, 8/27 from 11:00 to 1:00pm

You can find more information on Playback here: /theatredance/playback or reach out to Jim Walker at james.f.walker@colorado.edu for details on the information session.

Updates to PACS Certificate Requirements & Degree Audit Anonymous (not verified) Mon, 05/16/2022 - 14:25

The following information was sent to enrolled PACS Certificate students. This information has been reposted here just in case it was overlooked.

Degree Audit
- PACS is now finally listed correctly in the Degree Audit! You can now run a report and check your progress on completing the PACS Certificate.
  - Find the instructions on how to run your audit here: /registrar/students/degree-planning/audit/run
  - This will work perfectly for 99% of you. For the 1% that I’ve approved a substitution for a PACS course you may see an error. This is ok – you’ll still earn your certificate even if the Degree Audit does not capture your class. Just email me to confirm.

Curriculum Update
- It has taken a few years, but we now finally have more course options available for you to complete the PACS Certificate. Some important things to note:
  - First, any 4000-level PACS course will now count for the senior capstone requirement which used to be limited to PACS 4500 and 4900. This now includes: PACS 4000, 4100, 4500, and 4900. All 4000-level class are considered skills-focused capstones.
    - We’re rolling out three new 4000-level courses for 2022-23.
      - In the fall we are offering Restorative Justice (PACS 4000)
      - In the spring we are offering Mediation Skills (PACS 4000) and Managing Organizational Conflict (PACS 4100 – online only)
    - PACS 4500 will remain a research-focused seminar and still counts as an option for the senior capstone for IAFS students.
      - Starting in Fall 23, this course will only be offered fall term.
      - Spring 22 will be the last offering of this course as a spring term option.
    - Yes, you can take both Restorative Justice and Mediation Skills. The 4000 listing is a special topics designation and is repeatable up to 6 credits.
  - Second, PACS 3860: Environmental Conflict and Conflict Resolution now counts for the required conflict resolution course. This was previously limited to PACS 3700 and 3850.
    - This course will become a spring only, rather than fall only option starting in Spring 24.
  - Third, you can now complete the PACS Certificate entirely online through Continuing Education courses or mix and match online and in person courses.
    - This used to require special approval, but it no longer does.
- And since PACS now works in the Degree Audit, it will reflect these changes to the curriculum.
  - These changes make it way easier for you to complete the certificate and hopefully, you feel like you now have more options to tailor the program to your interests.
  - You can see course descriptions here: /pacs/pacs-course-offerings
  - If you are unsure what your course plan was, feel free to contact me and we can discuss.

Advising
- Please know that you can reach out to Dr. English at any time for PACS advising related issues. While I have limited availability over summer, I am around and happy to speak with you before the fall term if you have questions or concerns.
  - You can book an appointment here: https://pacs-104754.square.site/
  - If a time in my scheduler does not work, send me an email with some possible times and dates and we’ll find something that does work.
