What this Means for Training Registration

• Existing EHS and DFA training.
• Organizational and Workforce Development instructor-led courses.

Benefits of the New CULearn

Cornell is retooling CULearn into a centralized learning management system to serve as a one-stop-shop learning hub. The revamped CULearn will enable our community of learners to begin building their own professional development transcript and register for more courses and training opportunities in one location.

The new system offers better ease-of-use and functionality for both learners and administrators, and provides the following enhanced capabilities:

• All users will be able to filter courses by topics or sort offerings in a calendar view.
• Managers will be able to see at a glance their teams’ learning transcripts, and easily review and manage compliance training and staff development opportunities.
• Managers will be able to assign and push out training courses and other required courses to their direct reports.
• Administrators and managers will have access to customized, pre-built reports and dashboards to help them track the status of required trainings and report out on completion rates.

If you experience problems logging in, or need help getting started, please see the documentation at culearn.cornell.edu, or contact the IT Service Desk: http://www.it.cornell.edu/support/.
