CEC Community Building Partner (BPO) New Project Form 

The purpose of this form is for CEC community building partners to submit collaborative projects. Submitting your projects allows us (the CEC) to enhance how we facilitate building partnerships, track outreach, document outcomes, and communicate impact. We use this data to demonstrate the impact and value of the CEC to our donors, campus and university leadership, state decision-makers, and accreditors.  

Please note that this form is for CEC community building partners with office space in the CEC. This form is not intended to be used by UNO organizations or organizations outside of those non-university organizations listed on our website.
 

Here are some examples of projects:

  • Supervising a UNO student intern and/or volunteer

  • Engaging a UNO class to support your organization
  • Working with a UNO faculty or staff member on a grant project

What are the benefits to my organization?

  • Access your data to share with key stakeholders and board members
  • Utilize project submissions for supplemental information for reporting, grant applications, etc.
  • Facilitate your organization's future reapplications for space


How do we communicate partnerships?

  • We utilize a campus-wide data collection tool called The Community Engagement Partnership Initiative (CEPI) to document and visualize how our community and campus partner. This data is critical to UNO's mission, and the CEC community building partners play a critical role in this data. 
  • The tool allows the campus and public to visualize and tell a story about the partnerships through a series of maps and reports . It shows the intensity of collaboration over time.
  • We strategically tell stories about your submissions to our university leadership and stakeholders and promote/market these to our building-wide audiences.


By submitting this form, you give UNO and the CEC permission to enter projects into CEPI (when applicable) and agree that all the information submitted is accurate and true.
