The Value of Connections: Networking as a Career Strategy
Workshop
USB 214
How can you
gain information and advice from insiders about the culture,
business and expectations of a prospective employer? How can
you develop and mobilize a support group that brings you
referrals? Studies on effective networking strategies and
accounts from several successful job seekers at the
University of Arizona have shown that contacts and
networking are more productive than the traditional
job-hunt. In this workshop you will learn how to build a
network of contacts to assist you with identifying new
career opportunities and becoming more successful in your
current job. You will get introduced to strategies for
connecting to the university community as a whole and not
just to your respective department. Take-aways include
several models/tools to use for growing and managing
contacts, testimonials from successful University employees,
and an extensive list of resources that can aide you further
hone your networking skills. To register:

Everyday Ethics Workshop
USB 214
Ethics is about more than
following the rules. Each day we are called upon to make
hard decisions without the benefit of established
guidelines. So what do we do? Some of us refer to past
experiences, some of us turn to religious teachings, and
still others consider cultural expectations. This course
will explore the meaning of ethics and examine how we make
ethical decisions. This course is a combination of web-based
instruction and classroom application. To register:

Negotiating Strategies that Work Workshop
USB 214
We may not realize it, but
almost every exchange is a negotiation. Given that, it
behooves us to hone our negotiation skills. Negotiation is
about more than fighting for what you want. Effective
negotiators determine what's important to them, read
nonverbal cues, ask the right questions, uncover hidden
assumptions, and discover common ground. This session takes
you through the steps of the negotiation process and
provides you with the tools and confidence to create
mutually agreeable results in any situation.

Send your thanks to
our soldiers.
It only takes a minute and is so worthwhile.
If you go to the
web site
http://www.letssaythanks.com/ you can pick out a thank you card
and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is
currently serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it
will go to some member of the armed services. It is FREE and it
only takes a second. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers
received a bunch of these? I sent mine, now you send one too! |

Curb Auto
Theft with the Watch Your Car Program:
It's Quick, Easy and FREE!
The Watch Your Car
decal program is a free, voluntary program that
vehicle owners enroll their vehicles with the
Arizona Automobile Theft Authority. The vehicle is
then entered into the Motor Vehicle Department (MVD)
database and participants receive decals for their
front and rear windows. By displaying the decals,
vehicle owners convey to law enforcement officials
that their vehicle is not usually in use between the
hours of 1:00 AM and 5:00 AM, when the majority of
auto thefts occur. In addition, by enrolling in the
Watch Your Car Program, vehicle owners also
authorize law enforcement officials to stop their
vehicle at any time during the day or night within
one mile of the border, if there is a suspicion that
the vehicle is being illegally operated.
If a police officer
witnesses the vehicle in operation between these
hours, they have the right to stop the vehicle and
verify it is being legally operated by the rightful
owner.
To
register for the program online go to:
https://www.aata.state.az.us/Watch_Your_Car/Info_Request/signup_request.html
Register by mail
by downloading the form at:
