NCSCaLE supports employees who seek professional development opportunities. Professional development increases retention, builds confidence and credibility, improves efficiencies and reenergizes the employee. There may be opportunities that you seek out on your own, or your supervisor or colleague may recommend specific training. It is important to discuss training options with your supervisor first, to ensure it coincides with the business directive, but also, supervisors offer advice and feedback, and may bring other training or ideas to your attention that you had not previously considered. Please do not disregard training or certification because of a fee. If there is a fee involved, speak to your supervisor about the possibility of requesting funding.
The NCSCaLE Staff Professional Development Program provides competitive funding for full-time, permanent staff (excluding directors) to pursue meaningful professional development opportunities. The award supports activities that “build staff capacity and skills for the future success of the division” and encourages employees to “dream big” in shaping their continuing education journeys.
This award offers up to $3,000 per proposal to support non-mandatory professional development such as conferences, certifications, coaching, training, or other learning experiences that align with NCSCaLE’s mission and values. Activities must go beyond required job training or certification renewals.
All full-time, permanent NCSCaLE employees (except directors) are eligible to apply, as long as they have approval from their supervisor and SMT representative.
To be considered, staff must:
Submit a proposal (up to $3,000) describing how the opportunity will benefit the division.

The Supervisor Toolkit is a compilation of the various functions that managers may serve. This is a resource to empower managers of university processes. NCSCaLE may have internal processes, so please contact a member of the DELTA/NCSCaLE HR Team to discuss areas within the toolkit. The various areas within the supervisor toolkit include:
QuickStart University Business Practices Program (encouraged especially for new employees). QuickStart is a University Business Practices Certificate Program that covers the basic business practices and processes of NC State University. This program is most helpful for employees interested in an overview of the administrative, business, financial and other operations at NC State University.
QuickStart has been grouped into four modules. Participants will register for QuickStart and have the option to select a date for each module. Once you successfully complete all four modules, you will receive a certificate of completion. Each module must be attended, and missed modules may be rescheduled through REPORTER.
LEAD Professional Learning: LEAD equips today’s leaders with the tools and skills for tomorrow’s challenges. Engage with diverse methods of self-directed learning, including online courses, group discussions, monthly challenges and more.
LinkedIn Learning offers countless online learning resources to help employees pursue their career goals. LEAD will help guide NC State Employees to get the most out of the powerful LinkedIn Learning tools at their disposal, and help participants navigate to courses that align with LEAD and the LEAD Certificate programs. Employees may also learn at their own pace on a wide range of topics or choose to pursue a certificate in a specific topic. LinkedIn Learning is included for NC State employees. View the Libraries’ website for information on how to access LinkedIn Learning for free.
LinkedIn Learning now contains NC State Recommended Learning Paths, which are a series of short courses taken together to provide a deeper understanding of a topic or skill. Learning Paths are ready-made for lunchtime learning since each course lasts about an hour. As you complete the courses along the Learning Path, you receive a certificate from LinkedIn Learning.
