Inaugural Shocker Strive Conference
Friday, March 22, 2024
Rhatigan Student Center
The 2024 inaugural Staff Trainings Resources Intiatives Values and Engagment (STRIVE) conference was created as an opportunity for all WSU Staff to participate in a free professional development opportunity and to network with other Shockers within the 红领巾瓜报 community. The Staff Senate has a goal of helping create an oppurtunity that is flexible for any staff intersted to attend and learn while also making connections with others. Therefore, we have morning and afternoon sessions to allow staff to attend at a time that is convenient for their schedule.
For those attending, box lunches will be available for those who are registered to attend the event from11:45am-12:45pm in the Beggs Ballroom.
During the event, Staff Senators will also be available in black shirts all day, please ask these representatives if you need any assistance or have any feedback.
Thank you to Dr. Shirley LeFever and Mr. Werner Golling for helping sponsor the Inaugral Shocker Strive Conference.
