Training and Development. 3.1 Authorities will develop local 'Workforce Development Plans (see Part 4.8),' closely linked to their service delivery plans, which will provide the focus for the establishment of training and development priorities. Training and development should be designed to meet the corporate and service needs of authorities both current and in the future, taking into account the individual needs of employees. Local schemes on training and development should enable authorities to attain their strategic objectives through development of their employees. Training and development provisions should be shaped to local requirements and take account of the full range of learning methods. Such an approach should enable access to learning for all employees. The needs of part time employees and shift workers need particular consideration.
Training and Development. 14.1 The parties are committed to, and acknowledge the mutual benefit to the employer and employee of planned human resource development and the provision and participation in relevant development opportunities (including accredited training).
Training and Development. 10.7.1 Employees will undertake training as required by the Employer to ensure they have the skills and competencies needed to perform all of the tasks required. In particular, employees are expected to complete the Peri Peri Uni online training curriculum within three months of the commencement of employment and, thereafter, undertake refresher training each twelve months.
Training and Development. 50.1 The parties are committed to training and career development opportunities for employees that support and/or enhance Agency outcomes. The parties aim to achieve this by:
Training and Development. Section 18.1 The City and AFSCME Local 1180 agree that well-trained, knowledgeable Employees are an asset to the City. Responsibility for assessing training needs for improved performance and/or career growth is shared by the Employee and the Employer. After Employee development and department needs have been assessed; budget constraints have been considered; and training areas identified, on-the-job- training, internal training programs, external training, or educational programs may be utilized to meet those needs. Employees will be notified of training opportunities consistent with the mission and goals of the IT/IS Department; the type of training opportunity available; current or anticipated duties and responsibilities; Employee availability; and response time and funding.
Training and Development. 1 The employee is entitled to the personal development and training required to enable him to perform his job adequately.
Training and Development. The Employer and the Union recognize the importance of employee training and development as an element of productivity and quality improvement. Employee training and development is regarded as an investment rather than a cost and the parties seek to expand as well as develop employee skills through training initiatives.
Training and Development. The Employer and the Union recognize the need for training and development of employees in order to ensure that services are efficiently and effectively provided and employees are afforded the opportunity to develop their skills and potential. Information about in-service training opportunities for employees will be posted on the designated bulletin boards and at each regional office of the Employer.
Training and Development. Training and development to meet both the individual needs of employees and the service needs of employers should be placed firmly in the forefront of delivery plans. Employers and recognised unions shall co-operate to establish and implement local schemes on training and development. All training and development provision should be planned, delivered and monitored on the basis of equality of access for all, including part-timers. Resources for training and development should be shared equitably across all categories of staff. A skills audit will assist in establishing an overview of local training needs. The JNC endorses the target set out in Annex 7 of the “Transforming Youth Work Resourcing Excellent Youth Services” that local services in England should devote between 2% and 5% of the youth work budgets in training and development. Whilst this Agreement does not cover youth work in Wales, the JNC nevertheless endorses a similar target for youth work providers in Wales. The JNC recommends that workers attending or undertaking approved training and/or development are entitled to payment of normal earnings, all prescribed fees and other relevant expenses arising.
Training and Development. 28.01 The Board will attempt to provide appropriate and ongoing professional training and development within available resources to all bargaining unit members. Such training will be implemented in consultation with the Bargaining Unit.
