The Fall 2009 IT Short Course training schedule is now available for registration on our website.
Each semester we offer a variety of Banner, Business Services, MS Office 2007, and web training classes. Here’s a highlight of two new courses.
• Technology Orientation for Employees. This course, offered by IT staff, will familiarize new and current employees with the many computing systems at UM, how to access them, and best practices for using various technologies, and is offered on a monthly basis.
• Operational Efficiency. This course series, offered by Jessica Carter, program coordinator for Extended Learning Services, will introduce you to tools and practices that can help you become and stay organized, communicate effectively, and work more efficiently. Whether you take only one course or the entire series, you’ll learn practical tips and tools you can incorporate into your workday right away.
All classes are free of charge to University faculty, staff and students. Please note that Banner classes are typically restricted to faculty and staff. However, if a department employs a student and the job duties require them to be in the Banner system, we will allow registration upon approval from their supervisor.
