The Accounts Payable department has been reviewing all of our business processes as part of the University of Calgary’s iS² Project (Innovative Support Services). During this review, we found that the current Vendor Set Up process has many control risks as well as opportunities for improvement. We also heard all user concerns on the current Non Employee Expense Reimbursement Form and we created a New Form with a New Name. In August 2009 we engaged UofC Stakeholders for both of these projects. We are now ready to release the new form for all to use.

Stress is a normal part of life. But is having a job and kids seems to be just a bit too much right now? What does it take to cross the line from managing stress to being consumed by stress? Canadian health researchers from CIHR and the Hotchkiss Brain Institute have been closely studying this issue and the links between stress and common mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety. Join us for a lively discussion with experts in the field of stress and mental illness.
