Staff Alliance is offering support for staff professional development activities that directly support their professional development in FY25. Examples include but are not limited to: professional certifications, attending or presenting at a conference, professional society memberships, online or in-person training, webinars. (Please note, this is not applicable to UA class fees.)
This support is good for any activities occurring within FY25*, and is for up to $500 per employee, while the funds last.
*If you have a situation where you need to pay for something in FY25 that will not take place until after FY25, please email neromanovsky@alaska.edu. We'll review this on a case-by-case basis.
