SUBJECT:    Staff Affirmative Action Promotion Project

The Staff Affirmative Action Office is pleased to announce that the
Promotion Project has been funded for Fiscal Year 1995-96. This is an
employee development program to promote diversity at UCSD. All applicants
who meet the criteria will be considered without regard to gender or
ethnicity. Since the inception of this program, 33 employees have been
promoted with the funding awarded by the Staff Affirmative Action Training
Program Committee. I encourage you to submit an application if you are
interested in participating in the program. If you applied in Fiscal Year
1994-95, you do need to submit a new application for consideration.

Applicants for the Promotion Project will be evaluated by Staffing
Specialists based on their current classification and skill level in
relation to the desired position(s). You will be notified if your
application is accepted in the program's pool. Typically the way the
program operates is that when a department has an opening in the objective
classification, program participants are considered for referral to the
hiring department based on career interests and objectives and the
feasibility of developing a suitable training plan. Additionally, this
program attempts to provide mentors for participants who are interested in
having a mentor.

Each year, the Promotion Project targets several job classifications.
Departments are encouraged to consider a Promotion Project participant to
fill these positions. The following classifications will be targeted for
this year:
             Objective Classification

    Program Representative I     _________ Assistant III
    Administrative Analyst        Sr. Administrative Analyst
    Management Services Officer II   Programmer/Analyst II
    Programmer Analyst III       Staff Research Associate I
    Staff Research Associate III

Qualified participants from the pool will be matched to the open positions
and referred to the department for consideration. A participant who is
selected by the hiring department will be promoted into the new position
and will be trained for a period of three to six months. A formal training
plan to maximize the candidate's strengths and to develop their potential
will be designed.

If you are interested in this program, please complete the attached survey
as well as a UCSD Employment Application, resume, and Skills Inventory
Sheet (may be obtained from the Human Resources Department at Torrey Pines
Center-South, Suite 266). Please return three (3) copies of the completed
forms to the Staff Affirmative Action Promotion Project, 0923, by Monday,
September 25, 1995. All materials must be typed. If you need additional
information about this program, please call extension 45717. Hard copies
of this Notice and the Promotion Project Survey may be obtained from the v department contact.
