Report
Summary
PHXYou was implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic to provide remote learning and other critical employee training and development services virtually. It now serves as the administration, scheduling, enrollment, and record-keeping system for City training in both traditional and virtual formats. The CCA libraries will provide thousands of on-demand training courses for City employees in the areas of professional skills, leadership development, and compliance. The subscription to CCA libraries will integrate seamlessly into PHXYou, which is built on the Cornerstone LMS platform. Extending professional services will support implementation, migration, and integration efforts which will reduce the number of other learning tools used throughout the City by various departments.
