Staff development reports thousands trained; committee asks for compliance context and Workday tracking timeline
Summary
Staff Development Coordinator Patrick Wallach reported training completion numbers — 3,324 general staff for harassment prevention, 589 managers for manager training, 1,887 for diversity/respect/inclusion and 126 for HRLA leave administration — and committee members asked for compliance denominators and corrective-action context; staff said Workday migration should improve accountability in about 1.5 years.
Patrick Wallach, staff development coordinator, gave an annual staff development report describing the county's courses and participation rates. He cited course schedules and statutory frequencies and said the California Civil Rights Department provides online training options; the county also uses internal videos and policy documents as part of new-employee orientation. "We have logged training completion for 3,324 staff members," Wallach said about the harassment and discrimination prevention training for general staff; he also reported 589 manager completions, 1,887 diversity/respect/inclusion completions and 126 participants in the HRLA leave administration offering.
Committee members pressed for context: commissioners wanted denominators and compliance goals so numbers could be meaningfully assessed. Staff said some courses are required only at multi-year intervals and that tracking should improve after the county migrates from PeopleSoft to Workday in about a year and a half. Staff committed to include clearer compliance context and departmental-level denominators in the next report so the committee can interpret the training counts against total eligible staff.
