In Workday Learning you can enroll in staff training courses and other competence development opportunities. Please notice enrollment to a particular training is binding. If you cannot attend to the training, please inform of it as soon as it becomes apparent.

Aalto supports the self-directed development of its staff also through long-term coaching, with particular focus on areas that support our objectives to be at the cutting-edge of research and teaching worldwide.
The support for self-directed training can be larger for training which more closely relates to the employee’s current tasks or tasks which may realistically develop in the future.
Applications for support for self-directed training are made using the form entitled ‘Long-term external development’, which the employee submits to their supervisor. Decisions on support are made by the supervisor and the school’s HR manager.
If Aalto covers some or all of the expenses for long-term training, it is the employee’s responsibility to check for any tax implications and take care of such tax matters if necessary.
At Aalto University, apprenticeship training can be applied to some tasks and staff groups as a form of professional staff training.
