F&S Training Calendar
Welcome to the Facilities & Services Training Calendar. The training provided here represents a broad spectrum of topics that have been vetted and determined to be relevant to professionals in F&S.
Training Requests
We're committed to supporting your growth and success, and we're looking for your input on learning opportunities. If you or your team have a training need, please submit a Facilities & Services Training Request.
Monthly Safety Training
Required monthly safety training sessions are sent to staff directly through the Grainger Learning Management System (GLMS). The GLMS platform allows employees to see their specific training dashboard as well as gives supervisory staff an enhanced way to track and record engagement and completion.
Staff will see emails from the learning management system when new training is available. You can access GLMS and assigned training at https://accelerate.ehs.com/. Use your university credentials to log in.
For questions regarding monthly safety training, please contact Safety & Compliance at oshs@illinois.edu.
