A public community college will sunset a trades program. What should HR's workforce plan cover?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Killing a program is not just pulling it from the catalog. Faculty may reassign, classified staff may RIF, and students still need support through teach-out. Write the people plan or the last cohort inherits the chaos.
Full Explanation
A program sunset is a people-plan, not only an academic decision. Faculty reassignment or retraining, classified RIF order and bumping, and residual student-support load through teach-out all require documented workforce actions. Leaving staffing to after-the-fact dean discretion, or applying a blunt college-wide freeze, fails to match legal and service obligations to the remaining work.
