Happy Staff Appreciation Week

Happy Staff Appreciation Week!

As part of this week's celebration, I attended the TIKI ROOM luncheon held at the Price Center ballrooms with my department colleagues.

This year, the entertainment came from local UCSD hula clubs and from UCSD staff. Check out the video below for how one staff member volunteered for the hula dancing competition.

Apply for SEOEP funding by today!

It's today! It's the last day that you can submit your proposal for up to $500 in funding towards your professional development training activity.

New this year: the application is ONLINE.

Great resources to identify the right training opportunity:

• Seek advice from your supervisor in examining your skills — strengths and needs.
• Consider UCSD Staff Education & Development
• or UCSD Extension.

TIP REVISITED: Online Job Description Libary

At tomorrow's meeting, Carol will revisit an earlier tip posted on this blog: navigating the Online Job Description Library.

By accessing this Library, you can screen job descriptions based on:
* title code
* working title
* incumbent name
* supervisor name
* department name
* Vice Chancellor unit

For an example of how to perform a specific search, review January 30th's Blog post.
