VICE CHANCELLOR-BUSINESS AFFAIRS April 27, 1993 KEY ADMINISTRATORS/KEY SUPPORT STAFF OFFICE MAIL DISTRIBUTION CONTACTS SUBJECT: Staff Affirmative Action Training Program-Call For Individual Proposals I am pleased to announce the call for proposals for the Staff Affirmative Action Training Program. The program provides training opportunities for eligible career staff employees who have completed their probationary period. The funds are intended to help this campus achieve its staff affirmative action goals. Applicants must be members of a protected group, and should be seeking a position for which there is underutilization. The Staff Affirmative Action Training Program Committee will review proposals, due by May 21, 1993, and make recommendations by July 30, 1993. Applications will be accepted from individuals for: (a) Education or training activities which serve particular developmental needs, or (b) Traineeships (individual on-the-job training programs) developed and evaluated by the Campus Staff Education and Development Office (extension 44890) for campus-funded employees and Medical Center Training and Development Office (294-6153) for Medical Center-funded employees. For information regarding this program, please call the numbers listed above. If you are interested in applying for staff affirmative action training funds, please complete the attached application and return it to the Staff Affirmative Action Office, 0923, no later than May 21, 1993. Information regarding the requirements and selection criteria for training program funds is also attached.
