Training & Development: Supervisor Enrichment Program

Training Calendar/Registration form

Supervisor Enrichment Program

In today's highly competitive work environment, a well-trained and knowledgeable supervisor is a must. A skilled supervisor can improve morale, lower turnover, and reduce grievances and litigation. A skilled supervisor will communicate well and understand how to create an environment that fosters employee engagement and loyalty.

Day in and day out, no one has more direct control over those who do the work of the organization than the "front-line" supervisor. No one has more immediate impact on production levels or quality of performance, yet too often supervisors fail to receive all the training they need to carry out their important work.

The Supervisor Enrichment Program (SEP) provides strategies and techniques that will make you more effective in completing your day-to-day supervisory responsibilities. As a result of completing the SEP, supervisors will understand the various responsibilities pertaining to supervision within the CWU environment. The SEP covers key supervisory competencies presented in a format that allows participants time to absorb what they've learned and to try out new skills before continuing on to the next session. Supervisors will be provided with strategies and techniques for transitioning from a non-supervisory role to that of a supervisor with responsibility for developing staff.

ATTENTION
Who should attend: Employees, including faculty members, appointed to supervisor or management positions must successfully complete the Supervisory Enrichment Program within six (6) months of the date of appointment to a supervisor or manager position as required by WAC 357-34-055. More experienced supervisors who would like the benefit of formal management training should also attend.
