In an effort to better equip Larimer County managers and supervisors, Human Resources has developed a mandatory Supervisor Essentials training program. Managers and supervisors will be expected to complete the 10-hour virtual program upon initial hire or promotion, and then every three years as long as they remain a manager or supervisor.
How Does it Work?
Each January and July, HR runs a report of any new supervisors who have been hired/promoted or supervisors who haven't completed the training in the last three (3) years. Any supervisor who falls into these categories will automatically be enrolled by HR and receive an email notification from the Learning Center once they are enrolled. Every three years after the initial enrollment supervisors can expect to be enrolled again. This will all be completed and tracked by Human Resources.
Supervisors will have 6 months to complete the required 10 hour virtual course in the Learning Center. Supervisors and managers do not need to complete the 10 hour training all at once. The Supervisor Essentials training program can be completed incrementally and at the supervisor's pace.
This does not apply to supervisors in the Sheriff's Office. However, if you work in the Sheriff's Office and would like to complete Supervisor Essentials training, please contact Marcy Hamilton.
