03. Workshops/Courses/Training (work related; HR, EAP, DoIT, etc...)
1. Mastering Performance Reviews
Just as faculty members evaluate students on their performance in courses through papers, tests, classroom discussion, etc., managers evaluate employees on the quality and quantity of their work performance. These evaluations are made every day, every week, every month, depending on how closely the manager works with or observes his/her employees. These informal ratings form the basis for what we now call the more formal "performance appraisal" or "performance review".
This program is designed to:
Clarify the manager's role as a communicator, counselor and mentor.
Guide the manager through the process: from preparing for and conducting the appraisal session, to concluding the appraisal session, with follow-up.
Target Audience: Managers and supervisors responsible for managing the performance of others.
Date: November 29th; Time: 9:30 am - 12:30 pm

2. EAP Lunchtime Learning-Change for the Better
Statistics show that 98% of the time we change, because we have to. It is our reaction to the change, and not the change itself that determines our ultimate success. The objectives of this workshop are to: understand change and your reactions to change and gain tools that will help you react to change in a way that is positive and healthy.
December 5th, 11:30-12:30, HSC, L2, Classroom 108 (near SSW)
