The ABC's of Sustaining Discipline
The ABC’s of Sustaining Discipline reviews the core concepts of the disciplinary process from A to Z. This is an interactive workshop which describes and then applies fundamental and more advanced issues of the disciplinary process including notice, investigations, and due process rights. The workshop includes examples of mistakes public agencies make which can impact employees’ rights and which can derail the use of discipline as a corrective tool. You will leave the class with a comprehensive understanding of the various aspects of the discipline process, including tips to use to apply corrective measures and/or to sustain disciplinary action. Our goal is to empower supervisors to use corrective action when needed without fearing the outcome of the administrative appeal process.

Important reminder regarding ERMA trainings
It is our members’ responsibility to keep track of the employees who have attended ERMA trainings for compliance purposes. ERMA does not generate a sign-in sheet or keep a record of attendees. At the end of the training, all attendees will be given a certificate of completion indicating the date and title of the training and name of the trainer. For your own compliance purposes, we strongly recommend that you keep copies of the certificates for each employee who attended the training, along with a copy of the training materials. These are sometimes requested as part of discovery in employment lawsuits, or by various administrative agencies.
