Human Resources offers professional development courses to all faculty and staff. One sustainability seminar titled “Greening Your Office” is offered every year. This seminar teaches employees how to save energy, reduce waste, recycle, and purchase greener office products while also teaching about sustainable communications, activities, and workflows.
