We all have areas where we can grow and develop in order to support Saint Louis University's Cura standards. Sometimes, this is as simple as reminding ourselves what we already know. Other times it means finding opportunities to re-think how we can apply what we already know in new situations or even learning new approaches to working with our colleagues.
Explore the resources below that provide opportunities for faculty and staff to learn more about the Cura program. You'll also find workshops, classes, videos and other resources to help us all foster a culture of understanding, respect and appreciation.
View the Cura events calendar to discover opportunities for SLU faculty and staff to come together to build a culture of understanding, respect, and appreciation, as well as learn more about creating positive working relationships. If your department has an upcoming event related to Cura, submit the information to add the event to the Cura events calendar through this form.
