Organization Structure

Overview of Policy Subcommittee Process
The Policy Subcommittee is advisory to the full Compliance Enterprise Risk Committee (CERC) and is charged with the review of new and revised campus-wide administrative policies. The subcommittee vets the proposal with the policyholder and recommends to CERC the approval of the campuswide policy. The CERC Policy Subcommittee meets separately from CERC. It meets bi-monthly (with a limited number of exceptions) on the second Tuesday of the month and reviews policies in whatever manner it chooses but strives to respond within 30 days to requests for policy review. The responsible offices will be invited to send representatives to the CERC Policy Subcommittee meeting.
Resources for policy writers
For Policy submissions to the Subcommittee, documents must be on the campus templates, including the appendix, for new proposals and or revised proposals. Additionally, for policy revisions, a redlined copy of the policy changes should also be provided and submitted to the Policy Coordinator at ucbpolicy@berkeley.edu . The Policy Coordinator will review the proposal for technical and substantive changes before providing them to the committee. New and revised proposals must be received by the Policy Coordinator one month before the scheduled meeting.
For additional information on the policy development, review, and approval procedure, please refer to the Management of Campuswide Policies.
