 DISSOLVING A PARTNERSHIP

Party initiating
the dissolution

  artnerships dissolve for a variety of reasons. The dissolution may be initiated by the business/community partner, or it may be initiated by the education partner. Regardless of why the partnership is dissolved, it is incumbent on the party initiating the dissolution to properly notify the other party.

 

   

A suggested dissolution procedure follows:

 Notification

    As soon as the decision to end the relationship is made, the partner should be notified. This is best done in person, but if not possible, a phone call is appropriate.

Follow-up

  Follow-up verbal notification with a letter which should include a brief synopsis of the positive features of the partnership and a reason for dissolving the partnership. The letter should be copied to the Office of Career Connections.
