Resource Fair to offer information, help to employees

The Administrative and Professional Staff Advisory Committee and Clerical and Service Staff Advisory Committee will highlight campus programs, courses and services available to employees Sept. 27 at a Resource Fair.

The fair will be from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in Purdue Memorial Union, South Ballroom. The event is open to all Purdue employees. Employees will have the chance to ask questions, gain awareness of available resources and sign up for programs and activities. 

"The resource fair is an opportunity for employees to learn about the benefits available and to talk with representatives from several vendors," says Alexander Gulik, chair of APSAC's Compensation and Benefits subcommittee.
