Continue Your Education at Alcala Park By Jacqueline Genovese When Susie Woodward decided she wanted to continue her education while working as USD's director of advancement services, she didn't opt to pursue a graduate degree. Instead, she enrolled in the Certificate in International Business (CIB) program offered through USD's Con- tinuing Education department. "USO doesn't offer the program I want- a master's in information systems- but I wanted to continue my education and stay in contact with the business world, so this program was great," Woodward explains. The CIB program is designed for profes- sionals, and classes are typically attended by individuals who hold positions with companies in San Diego and Mexico. That certificate program, a seven-month series, is just one option available to USO employees through the Continuing Educa- tion department, says Jackie Freiberg, manager of corporate and professional programs. "For employees who can't make a commitment to a series program like the Certificate in International Business, we have a whole array of programs that in- volve one-time commitments," she ex- plains. "We run two breakfast seminar series, Business Update and Quality Issues Briefing, that employees can attend once, twice or whenever there is a topic of inter- est to them." Freiberg and her assistant, Selena Catan- zarite, encourage employees to take ad- vantage of the programs offered on cam- pus. "In this day and age, when competi- tion is so fierce, and information is explod- ing at such an incredible rate, it's fitting to participate in continuing education, espe- @ University of San Die8o Publications Office Maher Hall Room 274

dally here, in an academic setting," says Freiberg. Upcoming course offerings include: "Keys to Hiring and Retaining Quality Employees," "Motivating Troops Without Money" and "Managing Diversity." Fees vary according to pro~am, and employees are eligible for discounted rates and/or complimentary seats. For more infor- mation, call Freiberg or Catanzarite at ext. 4644.

Benefit Briefs By Vicki Coscia Maggie Davison SPECIAL THANKS... to employees enrolled with Pru- Care and PruNetwork for turn- ing in your completed surveys to Human Resources. The sur- vey results will be used to assist us during the selection process for 1992 medical benefits. We hope to have information about 1992 medical coverage in late October. DATES TO REMEMBER... 1991 OPEN ENROLLMENT IS SCHEDULED FOR NOV. 19 THROUGH 22. During this period employees are allowed to change medical/dental carriers, add or delete coverage for spouse/dependents, apply for medical/dental coverage, and/or waive coverage, as well as es- tablish health/dependent care reimbursement accounts. The benefit selections made during open enrollment will take effect Jan. 1, 1992. YOU MUST COME TO OPEN ENROLLMENT IF YOU PLAN TO START OR CONTINUE A HEALTH OR DEPENDENT CARE REIM- BURSEMENT ACCOUNT IN 1992. Health/dependent care reimbursement accounts DO NOT automatically carry over to the next calendar year. H you have a 1991 reimbursement ac- count and wish to continue that tax-saving advantage in 1992, you must go through the open enrollment process. WAIVING MEDICAUDEN- TAL COVERAGE... is al- lowed IF you are covered under another GROUP medical/dental plan. By waiving coverage you are eligible to receive the university's BenUflex contribu- tion as income. Human Re- sources requires verification of insurance coverage as you en- roll in 1992 benefits. BE SURE TO BRING YOUR IN- SURANCE I.D. CARD IF YOU PLAN TO WAIVE USO COVERAGE. Look for more information and important open enrollment dates in the next issue of Alcala View.
