As a training program specialist my job is to ensure all employees have completed their annual mandatory training. I help employees register for courses.

I also assist with special projects and will answer or direct employees to the correct answer to any of their other training questions.

I work one-on-one with employees to best accommodate them in registering for or taking their classes. I will take the time to sit with employees and show them how to properly take or update their training in any of our training systems.
