Auxiliary Employees

ALL Other Employees

For the 2016 - 2017 school year LISD is using Region VII as the provider for this required training.

• All employees must have a login account with Region VII.
• All employees must register through Region VII for each of the required courses separately.
• Important: if your Region VII account is listed under a school district other than Longview ISD you need to call Yvonne Jones or Katie Chenoweth at Region VII (903-988-6842 or 903-988-6778) and get this changed before you complete the trainings. Otherwise your completion records will not show up on the Longview ISD report and you may not receive credit.
  

• These courses are available 24/7 online through Region 7 Workshop Registration.
• There are no follow-up or reflection questions to be answered; you simply watch the videos and then certify that you have watched them.
• Each staff person must log in, register for the courses and watch the videos individually in order to receive credit.

• Staff must complete the training during the month in which you register for the training. If you register for a training during August, you must take the training during August. If you do not complete the training during the month in which you register, you must re-register for the training the following month and complete the training during that month.
• The use of headphones or earbuds may be necessary to prevent disrupting others if viewing courses in a computer lab.
