GENERAL QUESTIONS ABOUT THE eCOURSES?
How Does Berkeley People Management (BPM) Part 1: Grow Today Fit Into the Achieve Together Program?
BPM Part 1: Grow Today is part of the Foundational Skills Required Training for all people leaders on our campus. As such, completion of the courses is an important part of the Achieve Together performance program.
For policy-represented employees (PPSM) (i.e., those who are part of the Achieve Together performance program), if they have not completed their Foundational Skills Required Training, they should receive a "Needs Attention" in the Job Mastery Achievement Criteria. Receiving only 1 Needs Attention does not preclude someone from receiving a salary increase or merit. Please see the Achieve Together Salary Increase or Merit page for the criteria for PPSM employees to be eligible for a salary increase or merit.
For Union Represented employees, if they have not completed their Foundational Skills Required Training, this should be noted in their annual performance review document as not complying with a key part of their job (required training).
Where can I find a copy of the "Playbook" mentioned as a resource for a particular module?
Playbooks and other additional resources pertaining to a particular module can be found under Resources in the upper right-hand corner of the course window once the module has been launched.
Is the Berkeley People Management series about campus systems or people-to-people work?
The Berkeley People Management series and certificate program is about people-to-people work. It is designed to follow the arc of a person’s people management career at UC Berkeley – from aspiring to move into supervision to the knowledge needed to navigate policies and procedures at UC Berkeley, the skills necessary to engage teams, and finally, the leadership skills required for strategic success on our campus and beyond.
