Come join Staff Council for our monthly meeting!

Staff Council is a service organization within the University whose charge is:

• to assist the University in recognizing outstanding performance and ongoing dedicated service by staff members
• to maximize the use of talents and resources of the staff to support educational programs and to develop and strengthen skills and professionalism among the staff
• to provide events and opportunities that enhance the working environment of Michigan Tech

Each meeting consists of a notable guest speaker to share updates from around campus, updates about upcoming Staff Council programs and events, and opportunities to chat amongst a community of fellow staff members. 

Membership on Staff Council is voluntary, open, and available to any eligible staff member. Staff Council exists to support Michigan Tech staff: full-time, part-time, nine-month, or ten-month; non-student, non-faculty.

As a reminder, union-represented employees are entitled to release time for professional development activities, including staff recognition programs deemed relevant by the University. Employees should work with their supervisors to ensure coverage during their absence. Supervisors may contact Human Resources for guidance on eligibility and the process for granting this release time.
