Fall Evaluation and Promotion workshops

EMUFT is offering Evaluation and Promotion Workshops again this fall for both part-time and full-time lecturers.  The workshops aim to get everyone up to speed on changes to the evaluation/promotion sections of last year's new contracts, so we are all empowered with that information and do not miss any opportunities.  The workshops last one hour and will be led by members of the bargaining teams.

The dates/times and locations are:

Monday, Sept 8th at 6:30 p.m. in 145 Science Complex
Thursday, Sept 11th at 3:45 p.m. in 306 Pray-Harrold
