Every year, the university spends a week to recognize and cultivate the unique and important contributions staff make to our campus and community. Staff Development Week is host to a full series schedule of developmental sessions presented by subject matter experts covering two broad categories:

  • Professional development: Sessions regarding careers, with a goal of keeping participants up-to-date on current trends and develop new skills for the purpose of advancement.
  • Personal development: Sessions to better understand yourself and your unique personality, potentials, strengths, weaknesses, aspirations and talents to improve multiple aspects of life.

Sessions vary year to year and may be held in-person or online. With prior supervisory approval, all staff are welcome to join in (with no loss of pay or need for using accrued leave time) this enriching experience for staff members at work and beyond.

We invite all staff to take this opportunity to enrich and enhance yourself both professionally and personally. From tried-and-true favorite sessions, as well as new sessions that we hope will spark your interest, please join us for these informative seminars.
