Welcome to the CoC Foundation Menu Training Series!

OVERVIEW

This training series is composed of a menu of lessons in a series covering topics as part of the onboarding process to support you in your organization's role.

All course development was a peer-led effort; a team of subject matter experts created this training to address the need for onboarding new employees on these essential topics.

This training is for onboarding or acting as a refresher to introduce new or current staff to key concepts, develop or refine skills.

All lessons are self-paced, which means participants can take the time they need and set their schedule instead of working within a developed structure for them; this means no set time and a deadline to complete course materials so that you can access the materials at any time.
