• Not Just For Supervisors
  Employees who do not currently meet the established requirements for Fundamental in Supervision Certification are still enouraged to participate in the individual seminars. Attendance is tracked and the individual participating will receive career development credit. Human Resources will provide employee development opportunities in areas targeted to enhance overall career development (i.e. How To Properly Recruit and Hire, PPA Training, Working as a Team, Motivation). Additionally, there are training and development opportunities to enhance work skills and prepare for advancement in an employee's chosen career.
  
  
• Keeping on Track
  Every attempt will be made to notify everyone affected by the Fundamentals in Supervision requirement, but the responsibility for timely completion rests with each individual. New hires or newly promoted supervisors are encourage to complete the Fundamentals in Supervision requirement within three years from date of hire or promotion. No seminar attendance hours will be carried over into the next three-year training cycle.

Refresher training should also be completed after the initial requirements are met. For each three year cycle, supervisors are expected to complete 16 hours of training in the management or professional development area. Classes can be taken from a variety of vendors.
