Human Resources Update

Supervising @ Cornell

The university is launching a new campus-wide online supervisory training program. Supervising@Cornell is designed to be flexible – allowing supervisors and those who wish to be supervisors to get the information they want, when they need it.

Here's how it works:

  • There are nine core modules: a fundamentals of supervisory skills module, a module dedicated to Cornell-specific content, and seven modules aligned to the Leadership Skills for Success. In addition, there is a prerequisite to the modules.
  • Participants must complete SUPERHR500 “Welcome to Supervising at Cornell,” which will allow you access to all other courses in whatever order you choose.
  • The university prioritizes leadership and recognizes the importance of the supervisor-employee relationship in job satisfaction and engagement. Therefore, Supervising@Cornell is offered free of charge to all staff, faculty, academic and non-academic employees!

Additional information may be found on the website: https://hr.cornell.edu/career-management/supervisingcornell. If you have questions, please contact Jennifer Fonseca at jdf62@cornell.edu.

Parenting Workshops

Preparing for Baby Series, Spring 2019

Being pregnant and becoming parents often feels like navigating 100 different options and even more opinions! There are so many changes your body goes through and lots of new information to learn in a short period of time. This class helps cut through the extra (and unnecessary) noise. The Preparing for Baby series will help you sort through much of the information available for new parents and guide you in making the best decisions for your family. All Cornellians (faculty, staff, postdocs and students) and their partners/support persons are welcome to attend, free of charge. 

For information, please contact worklife@cornell.edu. The Fall 2019 workshops are being held on Wednesdays  from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m., 395 Pine Tree Road, Conference Room #140 (in the East Hill Office Building located behind East Hill Plaza). Visitor parking or a convenient stop on TCAT bus route #82 is available.
