The Professional Development Center focuses on the professional and career development needs of Case Western Reserve University staff and faculty. We value people as our richest resource for an engaging and high-performing workplace. And focus on upskilling collaborative employee contributors, supervisors, and leaders to help make CWRU a remarkable place to work and belong.
Employee Training Workshops
Staff and faculty are welcome to attend our employee training workshops. While covering a wide range of professional development topics, we encourage employees from every walk of life, at any stage in their professional career, to come together to learn, grow, and refine their skills through engaging training workshops.
Certain sessions will count toward our Employee Supervision Certificate, but these sessions may be beneficial to non-supervisors, too, especially employees aspiring to develop supervisory, management, and leadership skills.
