A brief description of the sustainability trainings and professional development opportunities available to staff :
The University supports employee career development, including education, vocational and professional development. Educational and career development opportunities encourage growth and commitment from employees, often resulting in greater engagement, enhanced capabilities and improved performance.
In addition to numerous training and development programs, the University also offers $2000 per employee per calendar year in tuition benefits for academic and related coursework, including vocational and professional development opportunities. Education Benefits may be used for academic degrees or courses at UVa and other accredited institutions, and non-credit courses, certificates and licenses at UVa and other education providers.
The flexibility of UVa's education benefits allow employees to pursue coursework in any area of interest. For employees interested in sustainability, significant sustainability-related coursework exists at UVa and employees may also pursue external coursework and professional development opportunities.
