Funds available for ANR staff development

ANR will be providing funds for staff development and the continuation of the popular web-based training system, Lynda.com. The staff development funds will be provided to ANR unit heads/managers to support staff participation in development opportunities such as seminars, workshops, webinars, etc. The unit head/manager may also choose to use the funds for group trainings. Funds will be provided in the amount of $300 per UC non-represented staff employee and UCCE county-paid employee. Funds are being provided to all non-represented career, limited term, and contracted employees regardless of their source of funding.

This funding does not apply to Program Representatives who received professional development funds in July 2010. UC-ANR represented staff can make requests to the ANR Staff Personnel Unit for staff development funds in accordance with their respective bargaining unit contract.

Funds will be transferred by the Business Operations Center at Kearney or Business Operations Center at Davis to a staff program development account for each unit head/manager for allocation. These funds must be spent by June 30, 2011.
