I just switched departments and I can’t sign-in with my new department credentials. What do I do?

In cases where you switch departments (example: from DHSS to DOC), your new SSO will not work at first. Continue to use your old department login to sign on to MO Learning. Once you have officially been moved over in the system, you will receive a error and will not be able to login with your old information. Now attempt to login to SSO using your new department login and password. Generally, it could to up to a week to switch everything over. Once moved over, everything will work the way it did before.

Are there special rules for overtime eligible employees wanting to take LinkedIn Learning courses?

Yes, overtime eligible employees wanting to take a LinkedIn Learning course outside normal working hours must first have the request approved by their supervisors utilizing the  After Hours LinkedIn Learning Authorization Form found on the MO Learning website.

Supervisors should work with overtime eligible employees to schedule MO Learning courses that will in any way improve or enhance the employee’s productivity, efficiency or effectiveness as employees during the employee’s regular working hours. If a course is vital to the agency’s mission, supervisors with authority to approve incurring overtime may approve an overtime eligible employee’s request to take a course outside normal working hours utilizing the form – with the understanding that the time expended in taking the course outside normal working hours must be treated as overtime in any work week where more than 40 hours is worked.

Supervisors may also approve the request of an overtime eligible employee to take a course that will in no way improve or enhance the employee’s productivity, efficiency or effectiveness to be taken outside normal working hours by so indicating on the form.

If a supervisor has any doubt about whether a course will improve or enhance an overtime eligible employee’s productivity, efficiency or effectiveness, the presumption should be that it does.

Can I take a training course during work hours?

Yes! All team members are encouraged to dedicate time to their professional development during work hours. Please discuss with your supervisor the best approach to integrate dedicated time for MO Learning into your work. Please remember, your first responsibility is meeting the day-to-day expectations of your position.

I’m interested in taking a training course in a field that’s very different from my own. Is that OK?
