Educational Toolbox Series
Lunch and Learn Event
We are excited to continue our Educational Toolbox series of workshops that have been created by the Executive Vice Chancellor for Administration and Finance Central Services Administration Team - Police and Security, Budget and Planning, Financial Services and OGC, OIT, Facilities Management, Institutional Planning and Human Resources - and other VC and ASA areas will be added.
These workshops, presented by members of the campus senior leadership team, are open to all individuals regardless of role or responsibility level. The primary goal of these sessions is to help people gain the knowledge to support them in their roles, and their goals for their career, and to offer global training and sharing of knowledge.
Each of these sessions will be held as a hybrid event to accommodate flexible schedules. In-person attendees will be provided lunch. Space is limited, so register early! We look forward to seeing you!
