How to book onto a course
April also saw the implementation of the new Core Portal where you can book training courses, view your payslips and view/change your personal information.
https://portal.shu.ac.uk/departments/HRD/coreportal/Pages/home.aspx
To book yourself onto any of the above courses:
- Log onto the portal (using your usual network log-in details)
- Click “My Training Self Service”,
- Click “book a course”,
- Search for the course you want (using keywords – just type in one of the keywords and click “search” – this is much more reliable than entering more than one keyword)
- Click the little green “+” sign on the right hand side next to the course you want
- Find the date of the workshop you want to attend (or the waiting list if no dates available) and click it to select – it will go green
- Enter a reason for training and fill in the comments (including extra supporting information as to why you want to attend AND any special access or dietary requirements you may have)
- Click Submit
That’s it!
