We are excited to announce the next installment of our Employee Development Series: Building a Positive Workplace Through Customer Service Values. Right now, too many higher education institutions do not reflect positive and proactive workplace cultures and values. This has a direct impact on the customer service experience of our student, faculty, and staff as well as our broader community.

Please joins us for the April Employee Development Session: Search Committee and Search Chair Orientation. This session will be presented by the UIS Access and Equity Office and a panel of experienced search chairs and search committee members.

Effective hiring for the university is critical to our long-term success as a learning institution that serves its students and staff well. Attracting and hiring outstanding people is the goal of every Academic Professional and Faculty search committee -- the better our search teams run, the better our faculty and staff will become.

We are excited to announce that the theme for the 2024 End of Academic Year Party will be Decades! We encourage you and your colleagues to embrace your favorite decade and join us as we celebrate the end of another academic year at UIS. Costumes are permitted to add an extra flair to the celebration. Prizes will be given for best costumes! If dressing up isn’t your style, come as you are and join us for activities, some good tunes, and even better food!
