Welcome College of Education WelcomeFrom fromthe the College of Education
July 2019 Dear Research BootCamp Participants: It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Florida State University College of Education and Sisters of the Academy Research BootCamp! I received my doctoral degree from the College of Education at FSU, and I am honored to now serve my alma mater as dean. Nearly 20 years ago, a group of Black women doctoral students and early career professionals came together at FSU to form what eventually became the Sisters of the Academy (SOTA), an organization dedicated to the success of Black women in higher education. Over time, the Research BootCamp became a signature experience of SOTA, and we are so pleased and honored that you are joining this remarkable program. I am a firm believer in the mission of Sisters of the Academy and the Research BootCamp. Supporting the journey of doctoral students and junior faculty members—particularly Black women—is paramount to promoting equality, diversity, and the health of our academic institutions. This will be an exciting and intense week, filled with opportunities to interact with and listen to senior scholars as they present on a wide range of topics. These same experienced scholars will provide mentorship and advice on your own research projects. I also encourage you to take some time to network with the other women at the Research BootCamp, as many of them will be able to relate with you and share their own insights on academia. All of us hope that by the end of this week, you will feel empowered, revitalized and enthusiastic about your own journey. I wish you all the best this week and in your careers! Sincerely,
Damon P.S. Andrew, Ph.D., FNAK, FNAKHE Dean and Professor College of Education

Welcome from SOTA
Sisters of the Academy “scholarship through collaboration”
Greetings Participants, Guests and Friends: Welcome and many thanks for attending and supporting the Sisters of the Academy (SOTA) Institute Research BootCamp© (RBC)! It is wonderful to be back in Tallahassee, Florida on the campus of Florida State University (FSU) to offer our signature event. Your presence here lets us know that you are committed to your growth as an academician and that you believe in what SOTA does and can offer you. Founded in 2001, SOTA aims to create an educational network of Black women in higher education in order to foster success in the areas of teaching, scholarly inquiry, and service to the community; to facilitate collaborative scholarship among Black women in higher education; and to facilitate the development of relationships that will enhance members’ professional development. SOTA is an organization of intelligent, inspiring, devoted, and trailblazing women. From its early conception of a small gathering of women at Florida State University, the organization has grown exponentially and internationally. The RBC fulfills our mission to support women of color in the academy—both individually and collectively in meeting their goals. SOTA’s RBC has helped prepare junior scholars to meet tenure requirements and doctoral students complete dissertation research. Since its founding, SOTA has provided collaboration opportunities and other professional development that have contributed to the success of many scholars in higher education. This will be an intensive week of workshops, seminars, and sessions that will certainly advance everyone’s work in a positive manner. We are delighted to have assembled an amazing panel of Senior Scholar Mentors to work with you. We also appreciate our volunteers, sponsors, and supporters. We are also thrilled to welcome previous participants in the 4th Priming the Pipeline – A Sisters of the Academy Legacy Project. Finally, we would like to extend our sincere appreciation to the 2019 Research BootCamp© Planning Committee Chairs, Tamara Bertrand Jones and Devona Foster Pierre, the SOTA Leadership Team, and the FSU College of Education administration, faculty, staff, and students for making this event come to fruition. Sincerely, SOTA Leadership Team

Sisters of the Academy
ABOUT:
Founded in 2001, the mission of Sisters of the Academy (SOTA) Institute is to facilitate the success of Black women in the Academy. Specifically, the organization aims to create an educational network of Black women in higher education in order to foster success in the areas of teaching, scholarly inquiry, and service to the community; facilitate collaborative scholarship among Black women in higher education; and facilitate the development of relationships to enhance members’ professional development.
SIGNATURE EVENTS: THE RESEARCH BOOTCAMP
The biennial Research BootCamp® is an intense, one-week program designed to help doctoral students and junior scholars develop sound research projects. Senior Scholars as statisticians, methodologists, and theorists facilitate workshops intended to help doctoral students conceptualize and design components of their dissertations (i.e, formulating research questions or hypotheses, developing literature review, selecting instrumentation, designing methodology, and completing data analysis).The Senior Scholars also assist junior scholars in the development of manuscripts for publication and advisement for tenure and promotion. In addition to the research component, every participant is encouraged to cultivate a mentoring relationship.
THE WRITING RETREAT
The Writing Retreat features Writing Circles of 3-5 participants based on research topics and writing goals. Within these group Writing Circles, participants are assigned a Writing Coach or a Facilitator. Writing Coaches provide participants with accountability for their specific writing goals. Writing Facilitators, experts in research, writing, and/or publication, provide individual and on-going advice and feedback to Writing Circle participants prior to and during the Writing Retreat. The Writing Circles and their Facilitators meet face-to-face for three days of writing and professional development.
THE INTENSIVE GRANTSMANSHIP WORKSHOP
This intensive three-day training includes workshops, panel discussions, plaenary sessions, and paired mentoring aimed at assisting particpants in acquiring knowledge and skills relevent to: (1) fundamentals associated with securing research funding to include such topics as proposal development, collobarative partnerships and sthe submission process; (2) key federal and private mechanisms of research support; (3) funding opportunities to engage in collaboraive, international research; and (4) establishing a fundable research trajectory. Participants also have the opportunity to meet one-on-one with representative from various funding agencies.
RESULTS BASED ACCOUNTABILITY
Results Based Accountability (RBA) is a framework that offers a disciplined way of thinking and taking action that communities can use to improve the conditions of well-being for children, youth, families, and communities (population accountability), and leaders can use to improve the quality and effectiveness of service systems, agencies, and programs (performance accountability).“ The RBA framework can be used to teach students, and human service and other professionals to improve professional practice. Whether used to redesign current undergraduate or graduate courses delivered to human service and education professionals, or to design/redesign existing programs, RBA presents a useful framework for program management and improvement for SOTA members. #SOTARBC2019
