With the computing industry changing so rapidly, and so little time available for professional development, the UW IT Professional Development Advisory Group organizes seminars to help. Professional Development Seminars are held every Friday morning from 9:00 to 9:45 am, from September to June. All UW staff are welcome to attend these seminars (no charge, and there is no need to register). If you would like to receive a weekly reminder about these seminars please subscribe to the istprofdev mailman list.
