Career Management

Everyone at UIC plays a role in Career Management. Professional Development begins with the individual and evolves into a collaborative process that includes coaching and guidance from mentors. It is this collaborative process that is visible in the Employee Performance Review Cycle.

The first step in managing a career at UIC is to DEFINE a PLAN that is informed by responses to a few questions.

• What do you expect to achieve in your current role?
• What actions do you need to take to be a high performer in your current role?
• Who do you need to speak with to get information about developing skills or acquiring knowledge in a specific area?
• How long do you anticipate functioning in your current role?
• What role/job would you like next?
• What actions must you take to advance at UIC?
