Innovation and entrepreneurship leaders from UCCS and the CU system recently traveled to Palo Alto, California, to visit Stanford University’s famous Design School (d.school), exploring the ways it approaches teaching and learning. “The CU system is recognized as one of the leading hubs for innovation in the world,” said Benjamin Kwitek, Ph.D., director of innovation and co-founder of C3 Innovation at UCCS. “We need to make sure we continue to learn from the best to increase our edge and fuel the economic vitality of Colorado and beyond.”
Curiosity serves Robi Calderaro well in her role as lead technical developer on the Employee Learning and Development team. A member of Employee Services at CU system administration, she works to make online courses accessible, user-friendly and aligned with style guidelines and best practices. Two colleagues nominated Calderaro for the President’s Employee of the Year Award, which is offered through the System Staff Council (SSC) in collaboration with the Office of the President. Last month, President Todd Saliman announced Calderaro as recipient of this year’s award, the highest staff honor at system administration.
