Support Staff Learning Exchange program now accepting applications

The following is from the Support Staff Endowment Fund Committee: 

The support staff endowment fund committee  and learning and organizational development, human resources, are excited to invite you to join us for the 19th annual Support Staff Learning Exchange (SSLE) to the University of Ottawa. This trip has been designed to support your professional development and enhance the network of individuals you share ideas with in your unit.

2016 Participants, University of Victoria

Applications will be considered if  you:

• have the support of your department to cover the cost of your trip (approx. $1000).
• are a University of Manitoba full time staff member in a continuing regular
• are looking to enhance the effectiveness of the service in your area by learning about University of Ottawa’s systems and processes.
• are interested in increasing your professional network both with counter parts at the University of Ottawa, and with members of the University of Manitoba

We expect there will be much interest in this trip so priority will be given to individuals who have not been on an exchange for at least 3 years. The results of the SSLE committee’s deliberations will be shared within two weeks of the application deadline.

The cost of this trip to your department/unit is estimated to be approximately $1,000 per person. The final cost of the trip will be shared once we have returned from Ottawa.

The expenses covered by this FOAP charge include:

• Return airfare from Winnipeg to Ottawa

• Shared accommodation (double occupancy)
• Friday evening reception
