Importance: High
CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
Please forward to all support staff in your area and print & post to staff bulletin boards.
The University’s Support Staff Endowment Fund (SSEF) Committee is making its annual call for members to fill anticipated vacancies.
The SSEF is a University of Manitoba established trust for the purpose of supporting activities relating to professional development for support staff. This committee works to encourage employee
connection, engagement and learning. The SSEF annually distributes the interest from the endowment fund for activities through awards for education or training and sponsoring or co-sponsoring engagement events that bring the support staff of our community
together. Annual activities may include participation in organizing the Support Staff Learning Exchange, awarding textbook and other learning awards, hosting guided campus walking tours, and coordinating the VIP Folklorama bus tour.
This is your opportunity to collaborate with other support staff from across our campuses and create programs and events of interest to your colleagues.
This vibrant 12- member committee meets 6 times a year at the Fort Garry Campus and attending virtually is possible.
In addition to the committee meetings, members have working group or sub-committee responsibilities.
Terms are typically for three years and a variety of roles are available. The committee seeks representation from all campuses and from excluded support staff (EMAPS) and members of bargaining
units.
If you are interested in serving on the University’s Support Staff Endowment Fund (SSEF) committee, we invite you to apply by completing the attached form.
Applications are due by 4:00 pm on February 29th, 2024 to:
Jasmine.Brar@umanitoba.ca
