SUBJECT:

University of California Management Skills Assessment Program

The Management Skills Assessment Program is a highly effective management
development program open to entry-level managers, first-line supervisors,
and professional staff at the Administrative Assistant III level and above
at all campuses of the university. Because the university is seeking a
balanced applicant pool of those represented in our community, people of
color and women also are encouraged to apply.

This Program provides a valuable learning experience for employees. The
Program is based on extensive research in the fields of management and
organizational behavior, and is comparable to programs available elsewhere
at a much higher cost.

Two sessions of the Management Skills Assessment Program are available to
UCSD personnel: October 10 - 13, 1995; and, May 7 - 10, 1996. Both
sessions are held at the UC Conference Center at Lake Arrowhead. The
program fee for assessees is $625.00, which covers tuition and room and
board for four days and three nights. Staff Education and Development may
be able to provide some staff affirmative action funding to assist with
the program fee for those accepted as assessees. There is no program fee
for managers who attend as assessors.

The campus Staff Education and Development division of the Human Resources
Department coordinates the Program for the campus. All applications are
reviewed by a committee which selects this campus' participants. An
assessee application form is attached. Please reproduce copies as
necessary.

An application form for those interested in participating as an
assessor in the Management Skills Assessment Program may be obtained by
contacting Lana Brenes, Director, Staff Education and Development, at
extension 44890. Applications for the October session must be received no
later than August 22, 1995. The deadline date to submit applications for
the May session is March 8, 1996.

I encourage you to give careful consideration to the Management Skills
Assessment Program as it is a valuable resource for university employees.

A brochure describing the Program is available through Staff Education and
Development. Please contact Lana Brenes at extension 44890 if you need
additional information.
