Apply for Staff Professional Development funds

Staff Professional Development is an important component for career advancement. We encourage all staff members to take advantage of this benefit, which can be used for conferences, trainings and more.

Staff professional development is defined as any educational or training opportunity that improves and enhances skills and job capabilities related to the staff member’s current job. You may apply to the staff development chair to pay the cost of your registration fee up to $500 per person, per department, per six months (January – June and July – December).

Staff Development funds are intended to be used as a supplement to departmental funds. They are not intended to replace departmental funds. Check with your supervisor to see what is available.
