Human Resources Learning Opportunities
Group orientation sessions will be scheduled every month for two days to provide newly hired CCBC benefit-eligible employees with the necessary information they need to successfully negotiate their new jobs on campus. The Human Resources staff will provide information on employee benefits and key institutional policies and procedures during this all day orientation program. New employees are automatically invited to attend this orientation.
This training is conducted in cohorts (groups of attendees) for 10 consecutive weeks in the fall and spring semesters. The ten modules include Hiring, Firing, Documentation, Discrimination, Harassment, Performance Evaluations and Progressive Discipline, Worker's Compensation, Workplace Violence, Privacy and FMLA. Each attendee brings something unique and valuable to the table by sharing experiences from his/her managerial career since theory is combined with practical applications. Currently there is a Wednesday morning as well as a Thursday afternoon cohort. All sessions must be completed in order to earn a certificate of completion.

Using Appreciative Inquiry methodology, a group of CCBC faculty and staff has been trained and certified to assist CCBC schools, departments and other internal groups in discovering what is positive about themselves. Generally two co-facilitators work together and groups of any size can be facilitated. This methodology can be used for strategic planning, problem solving, team building and a variety of other purposes. To discuss how this methodology may work for you, please use the contact information below.

Search Specialists provide leadership to the various College search committees according to their interest and availability. In order to be designated as a Search Specialist, one must attend an experiential eight-hour session generally scheduled during the designated staff development period in August and January. Update and refresher courses are offered at other times throughout the year. Topics covered in the basic training are system search and selection procedures, defining the best qualified candidate through defensible criteria, resume review techniques, affirmative action and the advocacy role, developing rating instruments, interviewing questions, reference checking, decision making, documentation, candidate communication, and record-keeping.
