Workshops to offer professional development to UWindsor staff

Two workshops offered by the Office of Employee Engagement and Development this month promise skills and education in the areas of communications and copyright.

Communication: It’s not just about e-mail
Wednesday, December 5, 9 a.m. to noon in Oak Room, Vanier Hall

Facilitator John Powell of public affairs and communications will explore the pros and cons of e-mail, websites, apps, direct messaging, portals and social media. Participants will learn how to better reach their target audiences with the appropriate communication vehicle.

Copyright on campus
Tuesday, December 11, 9 to 11 a.m. in Oak Room, Vanier Hall

Facilitators Gwen Ebbett and Joan Dalton of the Leddy Library will introduce some basic copyright concepts and will review both the law and existing campus policies that govern activities which may include scanning and photocopying in the service of teaching, research and administration.
