Central Pro-D Fund – January Deadline

The application deadline for the PEA central professional development fund is January 31.

Applications are received on a first-come, first-served basis, and priority is given to members who have not been granted funds within the preceding calendar year.

Please note that PEA members do not have to exhaust personal Pro-D funds before applying to the central fund; personal professional development funds may be reserved for a legitimate purpose as approved by your supervisor.

The form can be accessed HERE.

United Way donations

Have you donated to the United Way this year? It’s not too late to do so.  By supporting your local United Way you are helping the United Way build a strong, safe, supportive and sustainable community. We are so proud that the UVic community, through its employees and retirees, has been a dedicated supporter of the United Way of Greater Victoria since 1994!

United Way depends on us – and by contributing as a PEA member, you help us meet the challenge of making a difference for those in need. It’s easy to donate—make a single one time donation OR monthly payroll deductions. Any amount helps and makes a difference.

Please visit United Way to make an online donation or request a paper pledge form through unitedway@uvic.ca.
