How
Does ORA U Work?
DHRD will serve as the focal point
of ORA U, both within FDA and with interested parties outside of FDA. DHRD will provide
leadership and manage the development and delivery of the training courses and activities.
We will collaborate with others as appropriate in the development of new courses and in
the reformatting of courses previously developed by FDA or other agencies or
organizations.
Employees and supervisors can help
maximize the benefits from ORA U by following these suggestions:
Discuss learning
needs regularly and jointly decide on which courses to take and when to take them.
Schedule e-learning
just as you would if it were a traditional classroom course.
Help avoid
interruptions by allowing the use of a computer in a designated e-learning computer lab or
by posting a "Student in Training" note at the student's office door or work
cubicle.
Demonstrate by
example the importance of training to your organization.
Encourage students
to seek help if needed. Contacts for technical, content-related, and administrative areas
are listed on ORA U's "Contact Us" page.
ORA U is a work-in-progress. Check
our "What's New" section frequently for updated and new information.
Note: The Internet and Intranet
versions of ORA U are NOT identical. If you are an FDA employee and access the ORA U web
site from your home via an Internet connection, you may not have access to all of the
information available through the FDA Intranet version of ORA U. |
