Qualifications and Benefits The Training Department implemented similar changes to the CNR course last year, resulting in higher completion rates of that course. In addition to higher completion rates, we anticipate these additional benefits if we implement this solution: 1. Uncommitted employees will likely not register under this proposed arrangement, ensuring that resources invested into the course produce appropriate benefits. 2. This proposal will decrease the cost to the employees' units and help recover course supply costs incurred by the Training Department.
