Employees recognized for 15 to 45 years of service

Faculty and staff who have worked for the university from 15 to 45 years of service were congratulated at a Length of Service Recognition reception held in late October. UBC has always recognized 25 years of service for faculty and staff and now UBCO has developed a program to recognize people in five-year increments, starting at 15 years.

“It is important to recognize our staff and faculty who have dedicated so many years of service and who have helped to make our institution what it is today,” said Gillian Anderson, director of Human Resources at UBCO. “Our honourees this evening have been part of building a remarkable college and university system for this province—and one that serves the Okanagan in extraordinary ways.”
