Shepherd University maintains a program to develop the knowledge, skills and abilities of its Classified Staff. Both the individual and the organization have the inherent responsibility to define and achieve their own excellence. This program is designed to enhance the professional level and effectiveness of the institutional staff members in their assigned duties and responsibilities. Staff development involves and benefits everyone who influences students’ learning. When school personnel define and improve their skills and knowledge, students benefit.
