September 1 Briefs Excerpts:

New Training Record Management System
Two training records databases have now been merged into a single  
Learning Management System (LMS). There are two interfaces in the LMS:  
learner and administrator. The learner interface brings up a personal  
training page for everyone with a JLab username and provides links to  
web-based classes, Skill Requirements (SRLs), the Employee Job Task  
Analysis (EJTA) tool for updating requirements, and registration for  
any upcoming class. The administrator interface is designed for course  
creation and modification for course owners, instructors and training  
administrators. If you have any questions or suggestions for further  
improvements, contact Bruce Ullman, x7170. LMS link: https://misportal.jlab.org/training

Performance Appraisal Update
The current performance appraisal period ends on Sept. 30, and the  
2010 electronic appraisal system will go live on Oct. 1. Although  
there have not been many changes to the process since last year, Human  
Resources will offer training in September for all employees and  
supervisors who are new to the process or who would like a refresher.  
The first class is set for Sept. 9. Register for this and subsequent  
classes online: https://misportal.jlab.org/training

Challenging Situations: Dealing with Difficult People
This bring-your-own-lunch seminar will take place in CEBAF Center room  
F113, noon-1 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 14. It offers tools and  
suggestions for confronting and diffusing behaviors that can disrupt  
the workplace environment, interfere with productivity and negatively  
impact employee morale. Registration is required due to limited space.
