<p class="MsoNormal"><i>Understanding the Gender Pay Gap and Establishing Your Salary Goals<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The first of three workshops, this session will focus on understanding the gender pay gap, what it means for your earning potential, and the importance of negotiating a strong starting salary. Attendees will learn how to use public job

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>September 21, 12 PM to 1 PM<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i>Determining Your Target Starting Salary<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This workshop will build upon the first session by benchmarking and exploring the factors that determine what a good starting salary is for an individual’s needs and goals. The second half of the session will feature a guest speaker from
the Tucson community who will discuss their experience with benchmarking and negotiation preparation as well as answering questions from audience members.<o:p></o:p></p>
