Dear colleagues, I am pleased to announce that my office is hosting an Academic Support Staff Conference on May 30 and 31. We are excited to offer this opportunity for all academic support staff, such as program administrators, student advisors and other positions which provide support to student and faculty members. The goal of the conference is to offer professional development in topics that are relevant to their roles, and to demonstrate our appreciation for the essential work they provide at our institution. Both days of the conference will have the same program schedule in order to facilitate coverage for staff positions. There is no cost for attendance. The conference will include plenary sessions for all attendees and smaller break-out sessions. There is limited capacity for the break-out sessions, so spots will be filled on a first come, first served basis.
