Career Development for General Staff
The career development programme for general staff is designed so that staff can attend workshops in their lunch breaks and these will be run on the last Friday of each month.
Programme for General Staff
You can choose to attend all of the courses or just the workshops that are applicable to you. The workshops for 2013 are:
- Understanding the career thread in your work history
- Your values at work
- Identifying your skills
- Identifying and making the most of your opportunities
- Building your personal brand
- CV and Interviewing Workshop
The CV and Interviewing Workshop will run on multiple dates during 2013.
Mentoring Programme
The aim of the mentoring process is to provide staff with an opportunity to reflect on what they have learnt on the courses, and to think through the implications for their own careers with the assistance of an experienced general staff member.
The mentoring programme is open to all general staff at Otago University, and we welcome applications from Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland. You must be on a permanent contract and have worked in the University for at least twelve months.
Two or three mentoring meetings will be offered between August and November 2013 (a maximum of one hour duration for each meeting), and they will of course be completely confidential to the parties involved. Both mentors and those mentored, will receive training and support.
We will be calling for applications to the Mentoring Programme in July 2013. If you would like to participate, please contact Suzy Keene on 479 8743. You will then be sent further information and will be asked to provide information in order to match you with a suitable mentor.
For further information please contact the HR training advisor.
