This year, SFSC’s Professional Development Day will stretch to a full week of learning and enrichment.

To start the week, there will be a Traveling Showcase on Monday through Thursday that will include sessions where we can visit areas of the College and be introduced to the locations by our coworkers.

On Friday, in true Professional Development Day fashion, we will start our day with a keynote by David Steele and then continue through the day with informative sessions. In the afternoon, employees are encouraged to complete necessary training and participate in departmental meetings.
