Professional Development Workshops

The SPU I-O Psychology Program, Human Resources, Staff Council, and the Center for Scholarship and Faculty Development are excited to offer a new training opportunity for all SPU staff and faculty: the SPU Professional Development Series - monthly workshops offering insights, tools, and strategies to develop yourself and others. These workshops are organized by HR and Dr. Paul Yost, Associate Professor in the Industrial-Organizational Psychology Program here at SPU.

How to Register:

We hope the Professional Development Series makes a return in 2022 as we are able to schedule larger group meetings in person. Instructions will be updated as available. In the meantime, Percipio has a robust training library that is accessible for all employees.
