PLX Benefits and Expectations
BENEFITS:
The PLX is an opportunity for urban extension professionals to:  
- Develop leadership skills through structured peer-learning and advising
- Build relationships with other urban agents with whom they can collaborate and call on for support, as a complement to their programmatic agents’ association
- Learn about urban programs that they may want to replicate or adapt
- Dedicate time to urban program or strategy development with support from urban extension colleagues across the state
- Connect with Extension specialists and staff who can help address urban issues
- Get involved with National Urban Extension Leaders (NUEL), including opportunities to present at regional and national meetings
- Enhance the agent title promotion package

EXPECTATIONS:
In order for participants to truly benefit from the PLX, they will need to participate fully in the experience (roughly 8 hours per month). This includes:
- Attending all three peer-exchange sessions (one in-person, one virtual, and one TBD) and a minimum of two program group meetings (virtual);
- Actively contributing to peer-exchange sessions and group meetings;
- Completing individual assignments in between sessions to make progress on a self-identified Opportunity for Action;
- Updating the cohort on opportunities/challenges related to the Opportunity for Action;
- Providing input on future peer-learning experiences
I acknowledge the benefits and expectations outlined above and fully support this staff member participating in the NC Urban Extension Peer-Learning eXchange if selected. *
