Re-Imagining U is a collaborative employee training and development program managed by the Human Resources offices at both University of Nebraska at Omaha and our sister campus, University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC). Program participants have the opportunity to customize their learning and skill development in a way that is right for them. Re-Imagining U courses are offered repetitively over two semesters each year. Content is derived from needs indicated for employees and leaders in our current strategic vision and employee engagement surveys. Courses are either individual (meet once for 1-2 hours) or cohort format for deeper learning (4 meetings over four months for 1.5-2 hours each).
"Sustainable Living" is a recurring 1-hr course offered twice a year through Re-Imagining U. Within this course, UNO/UNMC staff and faculty learn ways to incorporate sustainability into their daily life; whether that be at work, at home, or at play. Additionally, attendees learn about what UNO and UNMC are doing on campus to become more sustainable and how to become involved with campus sustainability action. In 2021, there were 19 participants in this training.
Courses may contain themes based on current needs of the campus. In 2022, our theme for April is Wellbeing.
NOTE: Access to individual trainings offered through Re-Imagining U are available in an internal website, Bridge, only. A PDF of the webpage for sustainability course to be offered April 2022 is included in supporting documents.
