| MEA Misc and MTA Management Training Funds FY24-25 Check out the Institute for Management Studies (https://www.ims-online.com/); they offer virtual seminars/courses (https://www.ims-online.com/programs/ and https://www.ims-online.com/region/San-Francisco/23). Employees can use the management training funds to attend these seminars/courses which are paid directly from the individual's training allocation through the Department of Human Resources (DHR). Hence, employees do not need to pay upfront or be reimbursed. The only requirement is to submit an expense authorization (including a description and quote for the course/seminar) to receive MEA pre-approval. |
