What you need to know...

SPD-sponsored training is restricted to employees in budgeted positions only. Employees in OPS or adjunct positions are invited to enroll in Corporate Training classes at their own expense with supervisor approval.

For employees in grant-funded positions, training costs are charged to the grant.

Web-based courses are available 24/7 and can be completed on site with supervisor’s approval.

Diverse college-sponsored courses will be available to select from each month at NO COST to the employee. See schedule below.

Supervisors should identify employees’ training needs that would enhance the department’s skill set or has been an identified need from a performance review.

Please see registration process below.

Registering for a class: 4 simple steps

Get with your supervisor to assess your training needs

With your supervisor, select a course from the schedule.

Your supervisor will then obtain Cabinet member approval.

Have your supervisor complete and submit the SPD/Corporate Training Workshop application on your behalf (this can only be submitted after you have received cabinet approval).

Registration Confirmation

You, along with your supervisor and cabinet member will receive an e-mail confirmation of registration.

Non-college-sponsored courses

Employees may select courses that meet identified training needs or are job-related but that are not college-sponsored by browsing the Corporate Training website and selecting an appropriate course. To register, please use the same process described above.

If the course meets during regular work hours, employees must obtain supervisor-approved leave, which will be deducted from their leave balance.
