Hello I am pleased to tell you that Learning & Organizational Development (LOD) has opened our training and development workshops to the end of April, 2025. To register, please visit LODReg here: https://umanitoba.gosignmeup.com/Public/Course/Browse. Going forward, we will continue to open the calendar several weeks in advance and I encourage you to check the LODReg page regularly to view all of the employee learning and development opportunities as they become available. LOD workshops and sessions are offered exclusively to UManitoba employees. Some workshops that may interest you include: Inclusive Hiring Practices: Wednesday, April 16, 9:00 am to noon: Those involved in recruitment, selection, hiring and onboarding functions for non-academic employees hold special responsibilities when conducting these activities. This workshop provides a foundation of knowledge that will support our institutional efforts to have consistent and widespread integration of inclusive hiring practices. Effective Written Communication: Tuesday, March 11, 9:00 am to noon: Effective written communication refers to the skillful and clear exchange of information, ideas, and messages within a professional context using written forms such as emails, reports, memos, proposals, and presentations. After this workshop, participants will be able to draft more effective, relevant written communication for routine positive, negative and persuasive messaging. Taking Minutes for Meetings: Monday, April 7, 1:00 to 4:00 pm: Minutes of meetings form an important record of the decisions made by our community. During the workshop, participants will explore the steps involved in pre-planning minutes for the meeting; keeping track of items during the meeting; transcribing notes into minutes following the meeting; distributing minutes; and filing as needed. Participants will engage in learning activities and exercises and receive templates and examples for future use. Critical Dialogues: Monday, March 24, 1:00 to 4:00 pm. If you work as part of a team, support others' work, explain or share information, this communication skills workshop may be helpful for you to learn more about how to have successful conversations. This workshop covers topics relating to clarity, nonverbal communication, listening, empathy, respect, feedback and more.
