Registration for the learning and development program, Bulldogs United In Learning Drake (BUILD), is available on the Employee tab in blueView.

The BUILD program includes a variety of learning opportunities for faculty and staff who want to enhance their skill sets and learn more about Drake. Through BUILD, faculty and staff can:

  • Pursue lifelong learning with professional development workshops and skill-building opportunities
  • Understand their benefits and learn how to make the most of them
  • Improve their health and overall wellness
  • Strengthen their management and leadership abilities
  • Connect with colleagues from across campus

A list of BUILD sessions can be found here. Individuals who participate in the sessions, ITS’s Tech Tuesdays, and additional sessions announced throughout the year will be entered into drawings to receive prizes.

While online registration is available through blueView (listed under Learning and Development), registration is requested, not required.

Healthy Eating Made Easy class

In today’s busy world, it can be hard to find time to prepare healthy meals, which means more dining out, fast food, or processed snacks. Join Lucas Flaherty on Tuesday, Sept. 19, at 10 a.m. in the Olmsted Center, room 310/311, as he shares some easy and quick healthy meal planning advice. This presentation includes both information on programs such as Blue Apron as well as more traditional tips if you are buying from a grocery store and cooking at home. And, for between meals, discover some quick, low-cost, healthy snacks.

Participants will earn Bulldogs United in Learning Drake (BUILD) credits and be entered into a drawing at the end of the semester.

An online registration form for the class is accessible through the blueView Employee tab, in the Learning and Development Channel under Human Resources.  You may also contact Linda Feiden at linda.feiden@drake.edu to register.
