[Nsa] PSIF Project Survey to assess the feasibility of cross-organizational training

[Andrew Newman]

Dear NSA members,

Please consider lending your voice to efforts to investigate the
feasibility of a cross-organizational training program at NCAR/UCAR/UCP.

What

As part of a President's Strategic Initiative Fund effort led by staff
across the institution (UCAR/NCAR/UCP), job categories, and career stages,
you are invited to participate in a brief anonymous survey to gather your
opinions, feedback, and assess your interest in a possible
cross-organizational training program. If implemented, the program would be
tailored to the needs and interests of UCAR/NCAR/UCP.

Your feedback in this survey will help:

   -

   Determine the interest in a possible cross-organizational training
   program
   -

   Determine the level of support needed for a program
   -

   Provide feedback to shape the development of a program.

You can participate in the anonymous survey by following this link

Why

This feasibility study tries to envision an expanded framework allowing all
UCAR/NCAR/UCP staff (not just scientists and engineers) to gain work
experience in a different lab, center, program, or office. This experience
is intended to be temporary and is aimed for staff to be introduced to new
science, technical and/or leadership skills. This experience can be viewed
as professional development with the goal to increase cross-organizational
and program collaborations, help staff develop new skills, and accelerate
personal growth.


When

The survey is open as of Monday, Oct. 2, and will remain open until Friday,
Oct. 20. Results will be analyzed by the team leading this effort and a
short synthesis report will be made available.
