Team members agree to meet at least once a week prepared and on-time. Each teammember must make every effort to attend team meetings.

The team will stay in touch with each other by using the telephone as the first line of communication.

If team members cannot be contacted by telephone, then email should be attempted. The lastline of communication would be made in the team forum. All team members should benotified, there is no main contact. Team members should communicate with each other on anas needed basis. In an event of an emergency, all team members as well the facilitator mustbe notified.

Conflict Management

The potential conflicts that may arise among team members during this course are poor participationand differences in opinion.

Participation for the team includes effective communication, expressing ideas and completingassignments.

Even though team members are open-minded, differences in opinion may arise. Each team memberwill treat each other in a professional and respectful manner. Team members will meet to sort outdifferences and to come to a compromise.
