Call for Vice Chancellor and Departmental Applications
I am pleased to announce the call for Vice Chancellor unit and departmental
applications for the 1998-99 fiscal year. Annually, we seek to fund
several projects (last year, eight projects were funded with a total
allocation of $80,900). The implementation of the Staff Affirmative Action
Training Program will be in compliance with
Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action requirements and other applicable UC
policies.
Vice Chancellor units, departments, or departments in collaboration with
other departments are invited to submit applications for funds to support
departmental training and development programs which will
enhance the job skills of targeted employees. The proposed activity must
benefit at least three individuals and must reflect supplemental funding in
the total funds requested. The program may be utilized to:
I.	Provide on-the-job training by placing participants in
temporary positions (i.e., casual or internship) or by
creating temporary positions for the participants, or
II.	Enhance the skills of participants to prepare them for career
advancement.
Requirements, selection criteria, and the application form are attached.
Vice Chancellor units and departments must submit the application form to
Human Resources - Equal Opportunity/Staff
Affirmative Action, Mail Code 0923, no later than Monday, April 27, 1998.
The Staff Affirmative Action Training Program Committee will review the
applications and send notification letters of their decisions on funding by
the end of June 1998.
If you have questions, please call Equal Opportunity/Staff Affirmative
Action at extension 45717.
