THE INAUGURAL UIC All Employee EXPO-Know Your Resources was held on Oct. 16. It was a combined effort between APAC, the Staff Advisory Council, and UIC Human Resources.

THE PURPOSE of the EXPO was to answer work-related questions and to provide information about appropriate offices to contact. UIC personnel and subject matter experts, as well as outside vendors, provided information, contacts, and resources right here at or near UIC to help employees navigate their work, career, and passions.  Employees took ad of programs, educational sessions, workshops, and services that address the mind, body and spirit. The EXPO also provided the opportunity to meet fellow colleagues and become involved in the campus community.

MORE THAN 50 departments and vendors participated. Mary Berta and Marelet Kirda were the organizers from APAC.

FIRST, I want to say thank you to the members of SAC and APAC who helped organize the First Annual UIC Employee Expo Day,” said Tracy Sikorski, APAC Chair. “The event included more than 50 registered vendors and based on the number of employees who attended, was a great success. Everyone that we talked to thanked us for hosting such a great event and we look forward to having the Expo again next year.
