Frequently asked questions

I registered for a class and haven't received an email confirmation. Why?

Have you registered your preferred email address? Are you regularly reading email delivered to your registered email address? T&D sends an email confirmation to your registered email address approximately 24 hours after your class registration form is submitted. To register your email address or to confirm your registered email address, please visit https://db.uga.edu/eaddrchk/register.html. If you have a registered email address and didn't receive a confirmation, try registering for the class again. Please call T&D at 706-542-7062 if you experience further difficulties.

Who is eligible to attend classes at Training & Development?

T&D funding is provided for the development of UGA faculty and staff; however, professional courtesy is extended to others, including BOR and state employees, UGA temporary employees, UGA graduate students, and UGA retirees. On a case-by-case basis, if space is available, these individuals may attend certain T&D classes.

Do I need to get my supervisor's signature to attend class?

Appropriate supervisory permission is required to attend our seminars. You need not obtain supervisory permission if you are a faculty member, department head, or higher.

I'm wait-listed for a class. Will I get into the class?

If we receive your registration after a class is filled, we will automatically place you on a waiting list. Waiting list registrants are notified of vacancies and moved into the classes as we receive cancellations.

I'm scheduled to attend an all-day class at T&D. Will there be a break for lunch?

A one-hour lunch break is taken for full-day courses at Training and Development. The exact time of the lunch break is determined by the instructor on the day of class. The Training Center is conveniently located near downtown Athens where participants may find several eatery choices. The Training Center also has a small break area with tables and chairs, vending machines, microwave, refrigerator, and sink. 

When will the next course offerings be released?

Please see our training calendar.

I don't see a computer class for the topic I need training on. Where can I go?

If you need specific technology training, please contact T&D at 706-542-7062 or training@uga.edu. Your contact with us will help us plan future programs. If we cannot accommodate your need, we'll try to direct you to possible alternatives.

Which campus buses stop at the Training and Development Center?

The North-South bus and the Russell Hall buses stop at the Training and Development Center. For more information about the bus routes, please visit the Campus Transit site.

May I park in the lot next to your building?

The parking lot adjacent to the Training & Development Center is restricted to permit holders for that lot.  Only employees with an N08 permit may park in this lot.  

Across from the Training Center is the North Campus parking deck (N06). The cost to park in this lot is approximately $8 for a full day which is not reimbursed by Training and Development.  *Please be aware: The North Deck is sometimes full and there is not another parking option available in this area. We strongly recommend you ride the campus transit system.

For more information on specific parking restrictions visit the Parking Services Web site.

I have a disability. Where may I park when I attend training classes?

If you have a disability parking permit, please contact Parking Services (706-542-7275) regarding parking near the Training Center.

Where is your building located?

Training and Development is located at 315 South Thomas St. across from the UGA North Campus parking deck. Get driving directions to the Training Center.

Where will my training class be held in your building?

When you enter the Training Center, please stop at the front desk and sign in to record your attendance. Someone will direct you to the location of your training. If your training session is being held at a location other than T&D, you will receive an email with details about the location of the class
