Frequently Asked Questions and Answers

Q: How do I learn about upcoming STEP training programs?

A: Jeanine Williams in the Human Resources department will send e-mails and post upcoming sessions on the STEP Training Schedule. 

Q: How do I sign up for training?

A: To sign up for STEP classes contact Jessica James at jjames@stchas.edu or ext. 8393, and indicate your name, the session(s) you want to attend, and your contact information.

Q: How do I keep track of training units I have attended?

A: During each training session, the instructor will pass around a sign-up sheet. These sheets will be used to record your name and the session you attended in your training file. Upon completion of five units, you will be contacted to select one of the incentive gifts. Additional training units will lead to more gift incentives as you continue taking STEP courses.
