Request Training — Teacher Guide

Purpose Teachers and office staff can proactively request training. Your request is first reviewed by your Institute Head, and if approved, forwarded to the Training Manager for final decision. Once approved, you will be nominated to the relevant training schedule.

Two-Stage Approval: Your request must be approved by your Institute Head first, then reviewed by the Training Manager. Both approvals are required before you are enrolled in a training schedule.
