Professional Development Task Force

The University of Idaho is committed to implementing Goal 4: Organization, Climate and Culture. A significant component of the goal supports the ongoing development of our employees through a variety of learning strategies. The primary charge of the task force is to develop recommendations for a sustainable system of educational opportunities for our employees to support and strengthen their skills, talents, and expertise for the work place.

Committee Responsibilities:

• Analysis of priority employee professional development needs
• Centralized and coordinated systems of delivery
• Identifying synergies in events, participation, and fiscal resources
• Establishing policies, expectations, and practices for levels of employee participation
• Developing a fiscal plan

The recommendations of the committee will be provided in a strategic action plan, built on existing reports and recommendations from the Goal 4 team, to fully implement a system of initial and ongoing professional development for university employees.
