Professional development day Summer 2022
Save the date
Faculty and staff members as well as student employees are invited to save the date for the 2023 Professional Development Conference on May 23.
What does work-life balance mean for Roadrunners?
The Covid-19 pandemic spurred many employees across all organizations and industries to prioritize their purpose and value at work and in their personal lives. As Metropolitan State University of Denver employees continue to seek their new and more meaningful “normal,” the Learning and Development team is working to integrate balance into day-to-day routines and help employees find opportunities and outcomes that lead to happy, productive lives.
