session

This session aims to reaffirm that staff are not alone in addressing the increasing rise in discrimination, harassment, violence and inaccessibility experienced by the most marginalized in our communities. In this session you will meet the Education Specialist working in CSA who will map our rights, roles, and responsibilities, and inform you of the resources the unit provides, ensuring you leave with referral contacts. There will be ample time for Q & A. And you will have an opportunity to inform their developing strategic education plan! 

In this presentation, you will learn about the building blocks that go into creating a strategic plan. You will also gain hands-on experience navigating these tools by using provided templates to map out your plans to reach your desired goals.

Join us for a hands-on workshop where you will develop a foundational understanding of the cutting-edge technologies that drive Generative AI (GenAI) tools. Through practical exercises, you will explore the common risks and challenges associated with their use and acquire the essential skills to confidently navigate and utilize today's GenAI tools in your day-to-day work.

​Join this engaging and informative session with Sarah Lewis, your new Employee Career Advisor and Learning Specialist (ECALS) at the University of Waterloo.
