Training
Employees can access training assigned in CSU Learn two ways.
-

Employees will receive a Completion Confirmation notification email when they have successfully completed a training, the training will be removed from the "Assigned Learning" tab and will be noted on an employee's training transcript.
This error message means that your profile in CSU Learn is not currently active and you do not have access. You could be seeing it for several reasons.
If you are a new employee, your account hasn't become active yet as it can take 24-48 hours for new employees gain access once they have become active. Please reach out to ssutraining@sonoma.edu if more than 72 hours have passed and you still do not have access.

New employees usually gain access 24-48 hours after their start date and will be notified via email of new training assignments once they have access. This process is automatic and occurs nightly.

Once you finish a course for the first time, the CSU Learn system logs it as complete. When the training is required to be retaken, employees should click "RETAKE/RESTART" to earn the new completion credit and satisfy the training requirement.
