Subject: GSR contract training

Hi all-

I hope you're enjoying the last few days of summer! I'm writing in my role as the Associate Dean for Graduate Academic Affairs. The Graduate Division will be hosting several virtual trainings to provide guidance about the new GSR contracts, aimed at helping faculty navigate the various complexities that the contracts entail. Most notably, we'll be focusing on best practices for supervising GSRs while also serving as a mentor for their academic research.

We strongly encourage all faculty to attend; graduate staff are also very much welcome. In addition to general guidance, we'll be providing a new "description of duties" form that will soon be part of every GSR appointment letter, likely starting in winter. These training sessions are a perfect time to learn about this new system and ask any questions you might have.

This email is only going to Deans, Grad Advisors, Chairs, and GSAOs, so please forward it on to your faculty and encourage them to attend!

Please RSVP at this link so we can distribute the Zoom invite to all attendees.<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/forms.gle/NSzvq28S9B4mFqkB8__;!!OLyWHuc!XYUkrsZt79IYYjoPo55NaFcF4iunZvInlbZhX3N5WicD3-mXSfIggNoJcalttJN4sWlKqGCimXmc023NioydkVCV2w$>

Let me know if you have any questions at this time, and I hope to see you at the training!
