Professional Development Funding

Since 2015, The Civil Service Advisory Council (CSAC) has partnered with the Chancellor to provide  professional development funding for civil service employees at UIS. Each status CS employee employed at least 50% time may apply for funds to use toward any aspect of professional development during the award year. A call for applications is typically sent via email to all CS employees early in the fall semester. The Professional Development Applications will be reviewed and granted by members of your elected Civil Service Advisory Council.
