SELECT - You and your supervisor should discuss the many training opportunities available, and jointly select those workshops which will best contribute to your developmental needs. Enroll in and attend workshops designed specifically for employees in your job classification. Check the "LEVEL" under each workshop title.

APPROVAL - Please obtain supervisory approval to attend a workshop prior to enrolling. For work-related workshops that are scheduled outside of the regular workweek for non-exempt employees, your supervisor will need to verify approval for attendance by phoning T & D. If this is required, it will be specified in the workshop description. Click here for information relating to the Fair Labor Standards Act.

PREREQUISITES - At times, prerequisites are established for select workshops. It is possible that an enrollment request will be denied if the employee does not meet the prerequisite that is determined in each individual workshop description.

ENROLLMENT - Reservations are accepted on a continuing basis. Please use one of the following methods to enroll:

• T&D TELEPHONE REGISTRATION: Call our direct enrollment line at 293-7217, available 24 hours a day.
• T&D EMAIL REGISTRATION: You can email us at traindev@mail.wvu.edu
• When you enroll, you will be confirmed or waitlisted. It is a good idea to mark your reservation on a calendar.

CANCELLATIONS - If necessary, please cancel your reservation at least 48 hours prior to the session so those employees on the waitlist may have an opportunity to attend. At times, it may be possible for you to send someone in your place without displacing another employee on the waitlist. If this occurs, please call for approval.

WAITLIST - As openings occur, T&D makes every attempt to quickly notify those on the waitlist. As a waitlisted employee, you may be phoned on short notice. Your decision to accept or decline an open space will not affect your enrollment status in future workshops. You may enroll in a workshop that is presently being offered to classifications other than your own. In this case, your reservation will be accepted, and you will be placed on a waitlist. If all employees in the designated classification are accommodated, and space is still available, you will be enrolled.

CONFIRMATION - When time allows, employees confirmed in workshops at the time of enrollment will also receive a reminder call or e-mail from T&D prior to the workshop.

SPECIAL ACCOMMODATIONS - Persons needing a disability-related accommodation to participate in any event sponsored by the Training and Development Division should contact Glenda Palmer at least two weeks prior to the event. Glenda may be reached by phone at 304-293-3157 or by email at Glenda.Palmer@mail.wvu.edu.

In the case of inclement weather, call 293-7217 after 8:00 a.m. on the morning of the workshop, and listen to our voice mail message. In other cases, you will be notified by phone or e-mail prior to the workshop. Every attempt will be made to reschedule a cancelled workshop.
