Development and Alumni Relations - Staff Learning & Development course timetable

Delivered in a safe and supportive environment, this harassment prevention training offers individuals the opportunity to learn about the different factors that might create and perpetuate a work environment in which harassment and bullying occur, and strategies for how to address this.

The joint induction aims to provide a broad introduction and overview to all development and alumni relations staff, providing information about the ins and outs of Collegiate Cambridge, as it relates to our area of work. It is also an opportunity for you to network with other new members of staff across the collegiate community.

The session comprises:

• Tea and coffee on arrival with an opportunity to network
• A welcome and introduction from senior members of the University and Colleges
• An overview of development and alumni relations functions, roles and responsibilities, with an opportunity to ask questions
• A roadshow of the different functions within development and alumni relations, hosted by colleagues from both the University and Colleges

The syllabus covers the key elements of the project management life cycle including; planning and scheduling, communication, stakeholders, reporting and risk management (see attached overview). The second day will conclude with a one hour multiple choice exam which will lead to a certificate from the APM. This is suitable for those who are relatively new to project management or those who require insight into project management processes and techniques. This foundational course will provides a base line understanding onto which participants can build with more advanced courses.

Successfully managing upwards depends on your confidence, diplomacy and influencing skills.

This workshop will empower you to handle tricky situations with your manager or colleagues:

• Benefits of ‘managing up’, what’s in it for you and them?
• Agreeing priorities and setting realistic expectations and boundaries
• Influencing when you don’t have authority
• Getting clarity on delegated work and appreciating the difficulties colleagues may be facing
• Challenging decisions in a way that is solutions-focussed and enables an open two-way discussion

You will also learn how to adapt to different personal styles in order to build an effective working relationships and understand how different drivers and motivators may affect someone else’s thinking, (why do they do that?).

Have you ever been concerned about a situation and wanted to help, but didn't? Hearing a racist/sexist/homophobic joke in the tea room? Seeing an inappropriate touch of a friend? Watching a colleague wince at being belittled or interrupted in a team meeting? You're not alone, this is more common for many of us than you might think.

Come along to this short session to find out why this happens and what it means to be an active bystander. This includes simple changes and actions you can take to support others around you without confrontation and, over time, support a more inclusive environment for all of us to live and work in.
