Administrative Professional Day is a day designed specifically for Administrative Staff which is recognized annually on the last Wednesday in April. This event is sponsored by the President’s Office, where Dr. Papp, President of KSU, recognizes Administrative Associates for their hard work, dedication, and formally thanks each staff member for their great service to the University.

Guests are greeted at the door by members of the President’s cabinet, College Deans and other volunteers who assist in giving each guest a small token of appreciation during this celebratory event. The program begins with a continental breakfast followed by opening remarks and introduction of the keynote speaker. After the opening session, guests have the opportunity to attend rotating break-out sessions. These sessions include discussions on topics such as Conflict Management: How to Deal with Difficult Situations, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, and Exceptional Customer Service. Breakout sessions are held for one hour. Having rotating sessions allows each guest to participate in their choice of two topics. At the conclusion of the second rotating session, the program concludes at 12:15 pm.

Administrative Professional Day is an initiative of the Center for University Learning.
