According to Gary Stinnett, associate vice chancellor for human resources, this is an excellent career-enhancing opportunity for well-deserving managers to attend an internationally recognized development program that will aid in their own personal development as well as help them to become more effective leaders.

This 56-hour program, held in seven sessions, is designed for University employees who lead/supervise individuals or teams.

The learning and development team in UNC Charlotte’s Human Resources Department has received the College and University Professional Association for Human Resources (CUPA-HR) 2014 Excellence in Human Resource Practices Award.
The team, comprised of Joanna Roop, employee learning and development manager, and learning and development specialists Kathy Hurst and Jules Keith-Le, is being honored for developing the Leadership Experience program.
