What is being done to make training classes and challenge tests available to employees?
In addition to instructor-led courses, Puget Sound Learning, Training and Development (LTD) has opened instructor-facilitated, self-paced ERT labs in Everett, Renton and Auburn to make courses more accessible. Also, some courses are being converted to a web-based format to increase access. Instructor-led courses and most hands-on challenge tests are still on a demand-based schedule. It is important to get your name on the waiting list for those courses. In Portland, the majority of ERT requirements can be fulfilled by completing self-paced courses in the QTTP Industrial Skills Training Center Lab or successfully completing ERT course challenge tests. Please see “How to Enroll in Portland Self-Paced Courses” for more information. In Wichita, LTD and QTTP partner to offer ERT courses.
