State Personnel offers a variety of both professional development and procedure-based training classes to state employees at no charge. A list of training classes, along with course descriptions, is available on the Training Classes page. State Personnel offers full-day and half-day training classes. A training schedule is available on the Calendar page.
Training may be in-person, virtual, or hybrid (both in-person and virtual simultaneously). Most of our classes are available virtually, but some classes are only offered in person because of group activities, case studies, and discussions in class that significantly contribute to learning and application of concepts in the workplace.
REGISTRATION PROCESS
State employees register for training through their designated agency Training Coordinator. Employees must also have approval from their supervisors to participate in training.
The training facility address, directions, and parking instructions are available on the Training Center page.
If you are unable to attend training for which you are scheduled, you should notify your Training Coordinator immediately so they can attempt to provide a substitution. Vacant seats may prevent other employees from participating.
