[Nsa] Reminder : Survey to assess the feasibility of cross-organizational training closes Oct 20

[Andrew Newman]

Dear colleagues,

This is a friendly reminder to consider lending your voice to efforts to
investigate the feasibility of a cross-organizational training program at
NCAR/UCAR/UCP. The anonymous survey closes on Friday, Oct 20th. This all
staff survey currently has 140 responses and your survey submission will
help us understand more perspectives. You can participate in the anonymous
survey by following this link
<https://ucar.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4VBWsJ0ESyUslJY>.

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
opinion, feedback, and assess your interest
<https://ucar.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4VBWsJ0ESyUslJY> 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.


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 opened 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.
