Management and Professional Administrators (MPA)

APA Logo

 

 

 

The Management and Professional Administrators (MPA) is a non-union group comprised of senior administration’s support and middle managers.  The MPA bridges the gap between senior administrators and the operational staff at Mount Saint Vincent University.

 

The MPA represents the collective concerns of its members within the University community and is committed to the application of fair employment practices, including those required by federal and provincial statutes and to providing opportunities for professional development of its members.

 

The MPA facilitates the free flow of information between its members and members of the University community. It represents its members within the University community, on appropriate committees and in discussions regarding employment policies and, in the absence of a collective agreement, brings the collective concerns and wishes of its members to the senior administration with the purpose of establishing dialogue which will lead to the resolution of the concerns.

About the MPA Logo

Webster’s defines a bridge as "a structure carrying a pathway over an obstacle; a means of connection or transition; something that fills a gap."  Mount Saint Vincent University stands on the shore of the Bedford Basin in view of the narrow’s bridge. Done in the traditional Mount colors, theMPA logo represents the Management and Professional Administrators as a support structure for the Mount in that the group:

(1) provides structure and support for its membership;
(2) provides support for the students, faculty and senior administration; and
(3) provides a practical transition between Destination 2012 and the day-to-day operation of the university.
