Training Calendar at HCC

20 hours

20 hours of training per year?  20 HOURS OF TRAINING PER YEAR!?!?!?!  Were you aware there is a Training Calendar at HCC you can actually check and see what is available?  Haven't heard of that one, huh?  Here's how to access it:

Log in to Web Services and hover over the Employee menu Slide down to the Training option Click on the Training Calendar
The Training Calendar appears! If you are interested in more information about any particular training, click on the Title of the topic
When you click on the topic from the calendar, a new window appears with more information. Notice across the top are choices.  Probably the nicest two options are: Save to Calendar (adds to your GroupWise calendar) Email Reminder (GroupWise emails a reminder about the event) What a fast and easy way to find training to fulfill your 20 hours per year!

Reorder Assignments in the Gradebook

Each assignment has a column in the gradebook but sometimes they get out of order if you add a new one or delete one you no longer want to use.  The problem is:  How do you reorder those assignments?
Reordering assignment columns is a bit obscure but not difficult.  Here's how!

Go to the Manage tab Choose Categories
Select the category of assignments that is out of order - this will insert a green check mark in the box in front of the category - in this case, the Homework category is the one that is out of order Once you have selected the category, click the Show Tasks button
Look below the buttons and now there should be a list like this one Choose Reorder Assignments
Notice in the left figure, Drop Box 4 is out of order Select Drop Box 4 (it will highlight blue) Then click the Up or Down button - in this case click the Down button as many times as necessary to move Drop Box 4 to the bottom of the list The figure on the right displays the result after moving Drop Box 4 to the bottom of the list Click the SAVE button (or you will have to do this all over again!)
Now, when you look at the list of assignments, Drop Box 4 is in the correct order! Easy-peasy! (but obscure)
