This program began as a Supervisory Training Program in the 1980's in response to a request from the PSS Association. In 1993, the Staff Development Office realized there was no forum for all employee groups to come together to keep abreast of current issues and broad-based topics. We also realized that we could provide this training more cost-effectively to our employees rather than them going to outside conferences. Speakers Speakers for this program are selected based on their knowledge and expertise in their field of study. Many of the speakers are authors, experts or CEOs.
Perspectives is an excellent opportunity to network with colleagues across the District.
Approximately 300 employees register for each session. An average of 800 employees attend each year. To Register Perspectives sessions are listed in the Staff Development calendar that is published in print and on the Internet each August. When employees receive an invitation, they may call, e-mail, or fax their name, location, department, and phone number to the District Staff Development Office. A registration confirmation will be sent.
