Through IRI’s membership with this online learning platform, staff have access to a variety of courses offered by eCornell. Staff who wish to access a seat should read about the approval process before registering, which begins with completing the IRI Training Assistance Request Form and submit it to HR. Once approved, you will be able to register for your course (s). HR will approve more than one course in eCornell (ex. a certificate track), however staff will not be able to register for more than TWO courses at a time. Please be aware of the course format, the length of & weekly time commitment for the course you are interested in, the drop policy, and IRI’s consequences for not completing courses for which you register.
