The Career Tracks staff forum, organized by Staff Assembly, the Administrative Management Group (ADMAN) and Human Resources, will be from noon to 1:30 p.m. Thursday (Dec. 15) in Ballroom B at the Conference Center.

Management Skills Assessment Program

Applications are being accepted for UC’s Management Skills Assessment Program to be held April 17-20 at the UCLA Conference Center, Lake Arrowhead. UC runs the program for staff from around the system, with an eye toward identifying people for future leadership opportunities.

UC Davis has seven slots to fill from among applicants from the main campus and the UC Davis Health System. The application deadline is 5 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 21.

“We strongly recommend that department heads discuss the program with supervisors, managers and professionals who exhibit potential for management development and encourage them to apply,” states an announcement from UC Davis Human Resources. Selection criteria are listed on the program’s website.

UC Davis HR will cover the program cost of $1,095 (including all materials and room and board for three days and two nights) for each campus and health system participant. Departments are responsible for transportation or other related travel costs.

The program website includes a link to the application form (which has applicant and supervisor components). For more information, contact Davis campus coordinator Kristin Davis by email or phone, 530-752-3700; or health system coordinator Kristi Dorsch by email or phone, 916-734-2673.
