Hatfield School of Government at Portland State University is now developing a distance learning program focused on courses in tribal administration. The Tribal Administration Program (TAP) is designed for students who are working in, or are planning to work in, tribal government. When TAP is fully implemented, students located at reservations statewide will be able to take courses specifically designed to assist them in their work with tribal communities, governments and economic enterprises. Coursework will focus on core competencies and skills in public administration, as well as specialty courses in tribal law, federal Indian policy, and other issues related to tribal administration. Students will be able to take courses on their reservations or at nearby educational institutions using technologies such as video conferencing and the Internet. Person- to-person interaction and class seminars will be encouraged via in-person meetings, two-way video conferencing, and online discussions. Program faculty and staff also will assist students via telephone, fax, e-mail and on- reservation visits. Siletz News Confederated Tribes of Siletz P.O.
