The courses assigned for annual training are shortened versions that are different from those assigned as introductory training for new hires.

UA LMS

UA LMS is the learning management system used to provide required compliance training to University employees and guests. Faculty, staff, and student employees will be notified of required training through their supervisors and by email notification sent to the employees’ myBama (or Crimson) email address. New hires are added to UA LMS the day after their ePA is processed. At that time, they are automatically assigned the required training and receive email notification of their due date.
