OSPS E-News ~ New On-line OSPA Classes

[Announcements from OSPS to the users of the Oregon State Payroll Application]

The new on-line classes described in the August Training News are now
available in iLearnOregon.

 

The Leave Accrual in OSPA / LARS curriculum includes five modules:

*         Part 1, Overview of Leave Accrual in OSPA/LARS

*         Part 2, Leave Reports in OSPA/LARS

*         Part 3, Vacation Leave in OSPA/LARS

*         Part 4, Personal Business Leave in OSPA/LARS

*         Part 5, Compensatory Time in OSPA/LARS

 

Once we know the business rules for this biennium, we will include
another module on furlough obligation.

 

These classes replace the seminar class - Leave Accrual Reports in OSPA.
I believe that you will find the on-line classes have more "content"
than the seminar class did.

 

On average, each module will take between 30 and 60 minutes to complete.
They each include information on screens, business rules and the accrual
process. They do not include sound.  The format includes information and
examples followed by a review quiz for each section and a final quiz at
the end of each module.

 

When you complete a quiz, the screen will give you three options -
review quiz, retry quiz and finish. The review quiz gives the question,
your answer and the correct answer. You can retry the quiz as many times
as you want.

 

This link http://go.usa.gov/K9o will take you to the iLearnOregon log-on
screen. After you log-on, iLearn will go to the curriculum in the Course
Catalog. Enroll in the curriculum. When iLearn confirms the enrollment,
it will display a list of the classes. You will need to enroll in each
class. To take the class, click on the class title. The iLearn Resources
has written instructions on enrolling in a curriculum:

Once you have enrolled in the curriculum, it will be in My Workspace, My
Learning Plan. Click on the curriculum title for a list of the classes.
Once you have enrolled in the classes, they will be included in My
Learning Plan, On-line Classes. 

 

After you have completed a class, please complete the on-line survey, as
you do for other OSPS classes. Your Transcript will include a
certificate once you have completed the survey.
