Employee Certifications and Training

Safety training is required for employees and volunteers in certain positions.

Staff should refer to their position description or inquire with their direct report supervisor with questions about what certifications or trainings are required for their position.

Do I get paid for training? 
Yes, your time to complete required training will be paid at your regular rate of pay. Whether completing on-line training or a Red Cross course at the Y, it is the employee’s responsibility to punch IN and OUT or report a missed punch in Paycor. 

In-house Certification Courses:

To register for in-person class:

  1. Register at Watertown or Pabst Farms Member Service desk. 
  2. $10 registration fee due at the time of sign-up and is non-refundable if staff does not attend the class date/time as registered.  Attendees will be reimbursed on the next pay check. 
  3. Employees are compensated for time in required certification classes and are to use Paycor to record time spent in class.
