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 ___ Assistant
III level and above at all campuses of the university.

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 15-18, 1996; and, May 6-9, 1997. Both
sessions are held at the UC Conference Center at Lake Arrowhead. The
program fee for assessees is $650.00, 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.

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 follows. Please print
out the application form and reproduce copies as necessary.

Campus managers at the equivalent of the Senior Analyst level or above
who are interested in participating as an assessor in the Management
Skills Assessment Program may obtain an application by contacting Lana
Brenes, Director, Staff Education and Development, at
extension 44890. Managers who attend as assessors pay no fee.

Applications for the October session must be received no later than
September 5, 1996. The deadline date to submit applications for the
May session is March 7, 1997.

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 in more detail is available through
Staff Education and Development. Please contact Staff Education and
Development at extension 44890 if you need additional information.
