Jumpstart is the University’s employee led development scheme, established in 1995. It is a partnership between employee and employer and aims to provide learning and development opportunities for staff.
The scheme pays either the course fees or a grant towards the cost of tuition for any member of staff (who meets the agreed criteria for eligibility – Pay Scale 5 and under) who wishes to learn a skill or study a subject unrelated to their area of work. The individual gives the time to participate and the University provides financial support.
If you would like to apply please complete an application form and return by 5pm on Thursday 1 May. Paper copies of the application form are available from Reception points or on line via https://staff.shu.ac.uk/fdr/business-services/training/jumpstart/. Please return completed paper copies to Deborah Cooke at 20 Furnival Street.
