SUBJECT:  UC Management Skills Assessment Program

The Management Skills Assessment Program (MSAP) 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.

The next Management Skills Assessment Program occurs May 1 - 4, 2001. The program is held at the UC Conference Center at Lake Arrowhead. The program fee for assessees is $720.00, and the fee 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 this campus. An assessee application form follows. Please print out the application form and make copies as necessary.

Campus managers at the equivalent of 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 Linda Veliz, MSAP Coordinator, Staff Education and Development, at extension 44890. Managers who attend as assessors pay no fee.

The deadline date to submit applications for the May session is February 23, 2001.

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.
