All Commonwealth of Virginia employees are required to complete Compliance Training. Due to legislative changes over the years, these trainings may not have been requirements when an employee was originally hired. The Code of Virginia and DHRM require that all employees take certain trainings, regardless of original hire date. See Policy 1400 - Mandatory Training Required of All Employees for more information.
Please see our Frequently Asked Questions for help.
