Who We Are
UC San Diego Staff Education & Development (SED) is a multi-function division of the Human Resources Department that consists of Learning & Development, Organization Development, and Learning Technologies. SED is responsible for providing complex organization development consulting services and programs, instructor-led and e-learning, instructor support, enrollment management, development and coordination of major professional development programs and processes for UCSD employees; coordination of systemwide development programs and processes for the campus, self-study library acquisition and administration, administration of the UC Learning Center, oversight of professional development policies and use of educational benefits. Staff Education & Development supports two training facilities, instructor led classes, e-learning, thousands of course enrollments and compliance training reporting.
As Campus Human Resources continues our planning and support for staff in alignment with the Chancellor’s guidelines for all of campus, we are looking at options for classes provided by Staff Education and Development and all our Human Resources partners. These options include creating some online options to replace originally planned in-person classes, postponing an in-person class to a rescheduled date, and/or postponing an in-person class with a future date to be announced. We are also communicating with our instructional partners across campus to determine how we can support them and you.
As we plan and adapt to this evolving situation, we will continue to share updates with you. If you have any questions about upcoming classes, please do not hesitate to contact us at staffeducation@ucsd.edu.
