SUBJECT:

Funds Available for Staff Training and Career Development

In support of our mission and values, UC San Diego recognizes the importance of providing and financially supporting staff education, training and professional development opportunities. Continuous learning enhances our capacity to perform and builds our sense of community. It enables all of us to acquire skills to keep pace with fast-changing demands that emerge from campus growth, advancing technology, and the challenges we take on pursuing career growth within the university.

The Staff Equal Opportunity Enrichment Program (SEOEP) provides training and career development funds for individuals and departments. On the individual level, the program provides up to $500.00 for training activities to eligible staff employees seeking a promotion or career change. On the departmental level, the program provides up to $5,000.00 for training activities to eligible departments supporting their employees who are seeking a promotion or career change.

The application period for the Staff Equal Opportunity Enrichment Program 2019-2020 will be open on May 1, 2019.

Individual and department proposals for SEOEP funds must be received by May 31, 2019, at 11:59 pm.

Please note there have been changes to SEOEP, so please pay particular attention about the requirements and processes. You can find that information and apply by visiting: http://blink.ucsd.edu/go/seoep

If you have any questions or are unable to apply online, please contact Equal Opportunity Services at (858) 534-6466 or eosaa@ucsd.edu

We encourage you to take advantage of these valuable resources, because we believe the diversity we seek to sustain and improve UC San Diego, requires that we make a conscious effort to access available learning opportunities.
