Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1997 Week 1 Hansard (20 February) . . Page.. 322 ..

Mrs Carnell (continuing):

(2) Under current arrangements training is instigated on a section or work group basis. Staff are advised of relevant training courses through the Staff Bulletin and attendance can then be negotiated. Of course, matters such as the impact of the staff member being away from work activities and budgetary constraints need to be finalised prior to attendance.

(3) Historically, the introduction of new software has been accompanied by specifically targeted training. An example of this was the upgrade from Microsoft Word for Windows Version 2 to Version 6 where on a Department by Department basis `migration' training was offered to staff where appropriate.

Similar arrangements have been utilised in relation to specific business systems and new systems and/or modified processes have generally been supported by parallel training regimes eg training in Human Resource Management System -PERSPECT when it was introduced.
