The Cancer Center has a well-developed system for program planning and evaluation, the foundation ofwhich is a formal strategic plan. The four major governance structures of the Cancer Center provide theprimary means by which the Director and Senior Leadership conduct program planning and evaluation on anongoing basis, consistent with the strategic plan. The governance structures include the ExecutiveCommittee, the Center's primary policy and decision-making group which coordinates overall planningefforts. Providing input to the Executive Committee are the Leadership Group, which includes the ExecutiveCommittee and all Program and Shared Resource leaders/directors; the Internal Advisory Board, whichincludes the Executive Committee, the Dean and other senior leaders of the Medical School and keyDepartment Chairs; and the External Advisory Board, comprised of recognized leaders in clinical, basic andpopulation sciences, biostatistics and center administration as well as a patient advocate representative.Additional planning input is provided by retreats, other Center advisory committees and ad hoc reviews.CCSG support is requested only for the activities of the External Advisory Board which plays an essentialrole in the evaluation of the Cancer Centers programs, activities, structure and organization.
