Reminders
Job Placement Services Contract Training (JPSCT)
The Training and Contracts teams want to remind you that contractors are required to take certain trainings. If you have questions, please contact VR Training at VR.Training@odhsoha.oregon.gov.
How to access training through Workday Learning
State trainings are offered through Workday Learning. Workday Learning has been restructured to provide improved support to our partners. This starts with a new way to create Extended Enterprise Learner (EEL) accounts.
This means all new contractor staff will need to identify the ODHS program your agency works with the most (affiliation) and follow the link to that program on the Oregon Department of Administrative Services Extended Enterprise Learner Resources page under “New EELs.” View this PDF document for step-by-step instructions.
Existing account holders: there is nothing you need to do at this time. The VR training unit is working to set up your account.
After your account is created, you will be able to take state-offered training.
New ODHS website is live!
We are excited to share that our new Oregon Department of Human Services website is live. The redesign included new website addresses (URLs). If you link to our website, you may need to update your links. Please see the June 28 message for details.
