Managers

The Staff Development Academy (SDA) is available to assist you with your management, training and employee development responsibilities. The SDA is based on a proactive philosophy that seeks to stay ahead of staff development issues rather than react to staff development problems. Consider the SDA an answer to many current workforce development questions.

The SDA offers a variety of services to managers at the City Colleges of Chicago. These services are as follows:

• Design and Presentation of Customized Training Courses
• Consultation in program facilitation (Train-the-Trainer)
• Registration and coordination of various Administrative Courses through the SDA
• Information regarding the latest staff development trends and issues
• Assistance creating individual employee career development plans
• Registration for courses through the City of Chicago Department of Personnel (DOP)

You may contact the SDA to request customized or specialized courses in various areas.

The SDA is managed by the Associate Vice Chancellor, for the Office of Human Resources and Staff Development. The staff will work with you to provide the highest quality training services possible.
