Please note: College professional development funding has been exhausted for the remainder of the 2024 fiscal year. For professional development funding for the remainder of the current fiscal year, please work with your leadership to explore opportunities. CEAS HR will begin accepting new applications for professional development funding in FY 2025 on July 1, 2024.
Any classified or university staff member employed in the college may apply for funding for exam fees, training sessions, workshops, conferences, certification programs or other activities that enhance their professional skills. The request may be directly related to the individual’s current job or may enhance general professional development and should be in alignment with CU Boulder’s strategic emphasis on leadership, innovation and positive impact. Funding of up to $500 per staff member per fiscal year and per event is available on a first-come, first-served basis. A 1:1 or greater cost share is expected from the staff member’s unit.
Requests may be submitted at any time. Staff members should discuss the request and cost-share with their supervisors before applying; procedures may vary across units.
For full consideration, requests should be submitted at least two weeks before the professional development registration deadline or payment due date. Requests for funds are approved on a first-come, first-served basis per fiscal year (July 1-June 30).
