Training and Development<\/h2>\n\n\n\nPerformance Management Conversations – Trakstar Perform<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Make sure you sign up and attend an orientation session on the Performance Management Conversation process and the Trakstar Perform system. Supervisors and non-supervisors will attend separate (but identical) orientations as we roll out this new process. Lainey Bomberger’s<\/strong> last day at Nebraska Virology Center was February 17. Lainey will be the Payroll Associate in the College of Business. In the interim, please get in touch with Erin Coufal for any assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Every year the Nebraska Veterinary Medical Association (NVMA) accepts nominations for its executive board. Dr. Anna Fitzwater, Senior Clinical Veterinarian for the Institutional Animal Care Program, was nominated and then elected as Secretary-Treasurer for the upcoming year. She was installed into her role at the NVMA Conference on January 27th. Congratulations Anna! <\/p>\n\n\n\n Research Development Program Coordinator<\/a>, Research-50000086<\/strong> The Institutional Animal Care Program celebrated Tech Week from January 30th- February 3rd. This week-long event is organized by the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science (AALAS) and the IACP office took the time to make sure all of the Animal Care Technicians at the service centers were celebrated! The techs walked in Monday to office decorations and a poster recognizing their contributions to research at UNL. We brought in lunch and had a scavenger hunt Bingo to try and find as many animals as they could on their Bingo cards. Winners got to pick from the prize box. Special thanks to Lisa Maupin for providing our blackout prizes. Thanks again to all of our technicians and student workers- we would be lost without you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thank you to the OPEN Book reporters Mary Guest<\/strong>, Tisha Gilreath Mullen<\/strong>, Ashley Washburn<\/strong>, Sara Quinn<\/strong>, Mardi Bonner<\/strong>, Suzanne Spiehs<\/strong>, Megan Ebbers<\/strong>, Casey Lundberg<\/strong>, Brooke Goedert<\/strong>, and Jacque Barmore<\/strong>.
