University Executive Directive
A University Executive Directive (UED) is a guiding principle that promote consistency and operational efficiency, enhance our mission, mitigate significant organizational risk, and apply to the university. UEDs may provide guidance to the campus on compliance with relevant laws, regulations, or CSU policies.
Policy
A Policy is a guiding principle at the Cabinet or departmental-level and are tied to a campus-specific business process where a CSU policy does not provide sufficient guidance. Policies provide direction to the campus community on campus business processes, activities, or functions.
Guideline
A Guideline is a general rule or advice for the campus community.
