Educational Toolbox Series
Lunch and Learn Event
We are excited to continue our Educational Toolbox series of workshops that have been created by the Executive Vice Chancellor for Administration and Finance Central Services Administration Team - Police and Security, Budget and Planning, Financial Services and OGC, OIT, Facilities Management, Institutional Planning and Human Resources - and other VC and ASA areas will be added.
These workshops, presented by members of the campus senior leadership team, are open to all individuals regardless of role or responsibility level. The primary goal of these sessions is to help people gain the knowledge to support them in their roles, and their goals for their career, and to offer global training and sharing of knowledge.
Each of these sessions will be held as a hybrid event to accommodate flexible schedules. In-person attendees will be provided lunch. Space is limited, so register early! We look forward to seeing you!

CU Anschutz Brand Alignment
Brand alignment at CU Anschutz is about more than logos—it’s about how we show up, tell our stories, and present ourselves as one connected campus. This initiative is designed to create clarity, consistency, and flexibility across schools, colleges, centers, and units, while still allowing for individuality and mission-specific needs. This session will explore what brand alignment means, why it matters, and how it applies in practical ways across campus communications, marketing, and storytelling.
Presenters:
Kathy Green, Vice Chancellor of Marketing and Communications
Jenny Merchant, Senior Director, Brand and Digital Marketing
Flexible Work
Flexible work at CU Anschutz is designed to support employee wellbeing while fostering connection, collaboration, and a strong campus community. The current approach encourages regular in-person engagement alongside flexibility, with schedules shaped thoughtfully by teams and leaders to meet both individual and operational needs. A range of options and exceptions exist to reflect different roles and circumstances. This session will explore how flexible work can be used intentionally to support people, teams, and the evolving needs of our campus.

Adrienne Howarth-Moore, Associate Vice Chancellor and Chief HR Officer
