Good morning
Learning & Organizational Development (LOD) has opened our training and development workshops for the early part of fall (September-October). To register, please visit: LODReg<https://umanitoba.gosignmeup.com/Public/Course/Browse>. We open the calendar six to eight weeks in advance throughout the learning year and I encourage you to check LODReg regularly to view all of the employee learning and development opportunities as they become available. These are available exclusively to University of Manitoba employees.
Some training opportunities that may interest you include:
Core Skills for Supervisors (NEW): This is a micro-credential designed to equip managers and supervisors with the essential skills to perform the supervisory functions of their role. Comprised of four half-day workshops that can be completed in person at the Fort Garry or Bannatyne campuses, or online, that cover the essential skills for those with people leadership responsibilities. Employees have up to a year to complete the requirements for the micro-credential. For information visit: CSS_Micro-credential<https://umanitoba.sharepoint.com/sites/um-intranet-career-development/SiteP…>
Coaching for Performance (NEW): This workshop equips those with people-leadership responsibilities with practical coaching skills to support employee growth, accountability, and performance. Participants will learn how to use coaching conversations to foster ownership, solve problems, and support development.
Ethics: Decisions and Impacts: (New for 2026 to 2028): LOD offers a customized, four-hour ethics workshop designed for university employees who are interested in learning more about ethical behaviour and decision-making, and for those who require completion of an ethics workshop to maintain their professional designation.
Introduction to Human Resources: This full day workshop, available online and in-person, provides an overview of human resources at the university. Topics relating to hiring, onboarding, development, staff relations, performance management and retirement are covered. This workshop can be taken on its own, and is also the pre-requisite for workshops in the UM Human Resources Essentials certificate program.
New Support Staff Orientation: If you are a new support staff employee, or have recently hired a new support staff employee, we regularly offer both in-person and online orientation through LOD. Our next offerings are September 9 (online) and October 28 (in-person).
