Getting the Most out of your Training

In order to get the maximum training experience at your workplace, we suggest that you contact your supervisor and those who work in your general vicinity to inform them that you will be in a training session – even though you appear to be at your workstation – so that they do not interrupt your session.

If this is not an option, try to find a nearby conference room with a laptop or computer that you can use. If you work near others and in order not to disturb them, you might wish to employ a computer headset. See if your local IT person has access to one.
