Its objective is tomake a first approach to the definition of the teaching staffmanagement, that is, to identify measures to facilitate the institutionalization sustainability, such as: extra hours, which means the incorporation of SL in the career, necessary resources to promote the participation of professors in congresses and seminars, the possible inclusion of assistants to the courses chosen as pilots, application protocol of the SL evaluation, among others. This work can be done as a team, the committee raises needs about the resources that will be needed for each course. This will be influenced by the level of the course in the curriculumprogram of the career, the number of students, the materials they will need, the distance from the place where the service project will be carried out, among others. This last decision is of utmost importance, since the inputs it provides to the career, will allow on the one hand, improving the SL courses in a participative and representative way, and on the other hand, broadening the research horizons around the methodology, which will benefit the career and its teaching staff. In the case of theUC careers, it is feasible to ask the CDDoc for the SL survey document, which can be adapted if necessary.
