UCAR offers a multitude of continued professional development opportunities and support groups that help to expand education around issues related to workplace culture, cultivating a sense of community, enhancing supervisor and leadership competencies, fostering change management, and giving and receiving effective feedback to others. These are led by various offices, including OACO, Human Resources, and the Office of General Counsel. When appropriate we make the resources we use in these trainings available to the broader community.
All of our trainings are evaluated for effectiveness, and adjustments are made based on those data. For more information about the effectiveness of our flagship workplace culture training, UNEION 101, we have published in both Harvard Business Review and Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society (BAMS).
