This is a very special year for us as we are celebrating our 20th anniversary! The 20th Annual Professional Development Forum will take place on Wednesday, May 7, 2025, at the Adam W. Herbert University Center. The forum begins at 8:00 a.m. and ends at 5:00 p.m., with check-in beginning at 7:30 a.m. This year's theme, "Ospreys Assemble", is focused on learning to come together to face any challenge, overcome any obstacle, and achieve our goals.
The forum is free to all faculty and staff, including OPS and student assistants. Participants may attend the full-day or half-day program with supervisor approval. Due to limited capacity, attendees are encouraged to register early for all of the sessions, including the Learn老澳门资料 Leadership Panel and the Presidential Recognition Awards Luncheon. Anyone attending the luncheon, who is not an award recipient, is asked to register for at least one forum session.
Important Information:
- Please note that we will not be printing individual class schedules this year. Since you will receive an Outlook calendar invite for each session you register for, you can either print out your Outlook calendar for that day or refer to it on your mobile device during the event.
- The Learn老澳门资料 Panel and Presidential Recognition Awards will be streamed via Zoom.
