GED/ADULT EDUCATION
FY05 Accomplishments
• The GED/Adult Education program, developed in cooperation with the Johns Hopkins Hospital, entered its fifth year in FY05. The Hospital’s Office of Community and Education Projects through their Skills Enhancement Program continues to provide adult education to Hopkins staff.
• In addition to highlighting the program in MSD catalog, flyers announcing the fall and spring program sessions were created and included with paychecks for bargaining-unit staff members on both the Homewood and East Baltimore campuses. Announcements were also posted in conspicuous areas in the university Facilities Departments and included in the East Baltimore facilities staff newsletter. The program was also advertised at the JHU Benefits Fair.
• The Hospital staff received the calls from potential program participants, conducted skill assessments, and handled placement in the 12-week class sessions instructed by their staff. There were 26 Hopkins staff members who completed program courses in FY05, an increase of 37% over FY04 which represents the highest increase in participation since the program began.
• During the fall, one GED participant earned their high school equivalency. • Training and Education paid the Johns Hopkins Hospital, Office of Community
and Education Projects $5,500 for the GED program in FY05.

MSD SUPERVISORY TRAINING PROGRAM
FY05 Accomplishments • The JHU Supervisory Training Program, developed in spring 2001, continued to
grow as it entered its fourth year. The training program is comprised of seven courses that can be completed over a period of eight days.
• Target participants included newly hired or promoted managers and supervisors identified by the divisional human resources offices. These individuals were sent an invitation to attend the first course in the program.
• A database was developed to track the participants’ progress in completing the required courses. At the end of each term, participants were sent a report indicating the number of courses left to complete the program. A registration form was included to encourage their attendance in upcoming courses.
• To date, just over 1,101 supervisors/managers have enrolled in the program. In FY05 alone, there were 350 new program participants. An additional 134 have completed all the required courses, bringing the total number of program graduates to 328. Certificates of program completion were mailed to participants who completed the program in FY05.
• Met with HR managers to discuss the effectiveness of the program.
Goals for FY06
• Advertise the program in the Human Resources Today publication. • Utilize ASPEN LMS to track and improve data gathering on program
enrollment. • Undertake a full scale program evaluation to examine trends, best practices,
and identify areas for improvement as the program nears the end of its fifth year.

MSD CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL MANAGERS PROGRAM The Certified Professional Managers Program (CPM), created in spring 2001, continues to use the training materials developed by the Institute of Certified Professional Managers (ICPM) at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia. The ICPM sets performance standards for managers worldwide and conducts research in the areas of management, business education, academic assessment and certification. The CPM program consists of three training modules offered over three consecutive days.
FY05 Accomplishments
• Since its inception, one hundred fifty-eight (158) mid-level managers have enrolled in the program. There were 38 enrollees in FY05.
• Seventy six (48%) have successfully completed all three modules. Upon completing the program, participants were encouraged to take ICPM’s certification examination and join over 10,000 professionals from 1,600 companies who have been certified through ICPM programs. Three additional university managers have passed the examinations and become a Certified Manager (CM), bringing the total number of Hopkins CMs to four.
• Modified the course delivery to match ICPM’s revised course modules: Management Skills I, II, & III. This change requires significant reworking of the content taught.
• A curriculum revision that occurred in 2004 reorganized the content so that individuals who were in process had to begin again using the new materials. This may have slowed the progress of some individuals toward the completion of the program. In FY05, 15 individuals completed the program.
Goals for FY06 • Continue to advertise the existence of the program and highlight the program in
HR Today. • Improve the database using ASPEN software to track program participants.

MSD PROJECT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM The project management track was piloted in the winter of FY05 at the request of Denise Antinori of the Hopkins IT department. These eight one-day courses, offered in conjunction with the Business and Management Programs of the Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC), provide the instruction required by the Project Management Institute for those interested in becoming certified Project Management Professionals (PMP). The program includes:
• Overview / Managing Project Scope • Project Scheduling • Project Estimating and Budgeting • Forming and Managing the Project Team • Project Monitoring and Control • Contract and Procurement Management • Managing Project Risk • Project Quality Management
FY05 Accomplishments
• A program flyer was developed and distributed within the IT departments. • Nineteen (19) participants enrolled in the pilot course. • Fifteen (15) or 79% of program enrollees completed the training program. • We have been informed that one individual has passed the certification
examination, there may be others.
Goals for FY06 • Continue to advertise the existence of the program and highlight the program in
the T&E catalog and through IT departmental flyers. • Track enrollment stats to identify those enrollees who become PMPs.
THE JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
The Center for Training and Education Annual Report FY04 17
MSD DEPARTMENTAL TRAINING
FY05 Accomplishments • Seventy-seven (77) departmental training courses were offered by request in
FY05, an increase of 18% from FY04. This increase is significant as the program has experienced continuous decreases over the past few years. Much of the increase can be attributed to increased efforts at promoting departmental training by the program manager and partnerships with HR and OHS groups.
• Developed and disseminated a revised departmental training catalog. • Added several new courses to the program. • Contracted with several local instructors to save fees to larger out-of-state
vendors.
Goals for FY06
• Continue to partner with those outside of T&E to increase course offerings to intact work groups.
• Explore ways in which departmental courses may be needed as a result of the HopkinsOne implementation.
MSD INTERACTIVE MULTIMEDIA TRAINING PROGRAM
FY05 Accomplishments
• This is the seventh fiscal year that the Interactive Multimedia Training Program has been in existence.
• CD-ROM training courses were used 23 times in FY05, a slight decrease from FY04.
• The business writing series continues to be most often utilized. • Explored the use of e-learning courses offered through WebConnect. A
decision was made to table this new offering until the new LMS required as a result of HopkinsOne is selected and installed.
Goals for FY06 • Increase university-wide advertising of program offerings. • Research and evaluate new CD-ROMs and add to program as needed.

FY05 Accomplishments Over the years, the Leadership Development Program has become a collaborative program of the Office of Human Services with the Offices of Organization Development and Diversity and the Office of the Career Management Program participating to provide instruction in a variety of courses. Also, there are three distinct “tracks” that provide focus to the efforts to address different populations, as seen in the figure above. The Leadership Development Program (LDP) saw its ninth successful year. This program is the foundation of T&E’s efforts to address the needs of senior leaders, and it remains the main focus of the leadership program. This year, for the sixth time, three internal staff members taught the FOUNDATIONS course. Dr. Richard (Dick) Kilburg, who directs the Office of Human Services, led the instructor team, which included Dr. Linda Dillon Jones and Dr. Eugene (Geno) Schnell. Ms. Lisa Heiser taught the Leadership Skills Assessment for Professional Development course. The Center for Training and Education Annual Report FY04 18
THE JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
The Center for Training and Education Annual Report FY04 19
A briefer version of this program is offered as a two-day off-site retreat to the JHM Faculty and Administrator Leadership Development Program. Another version of the program designed to mirror the content of the university’s FOUNDATIONS courses is offered to physicians and administrative staff who run clinical offices This version consists of two retreats: one lasting two and a half days, and the other a single day in the fall and spring. Last year, 31 people attended the basic FOUNDATIONS course in the JHU LDP, and 32 people attended the FOUNDATIONS course which was offered as a retreat in the JHM LDP. The current plan is to continue to offer these courses in this way each year. Over the past nine years, 248 people have taken one or more of the four basic courses in the JHU program. The Leadership Development Program taught 24 days of training in FY05, for 350 participants, for a total cost to Staff Development Remission of $168,416.
Goals for FY06 The Office of Human Services staff has established a series of bi-weekly meetings to discuss the ongoing work of the program and the direction the program should take in the future. Ongoing goals include continuing to:
• Work to get the right people nominated to attend the basic leadership FOUNDATIONS course
• Attract Leadership Development Program completers into the additional course work of the LDP program
• Attract senior leaders who are new to the Hopkins environment to attend the Senior Leadership Transitions course
• Add additional course work related to coaching and supervision to the Leadership Track

FACULTY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
Current Activity In the past, the term “Faculty Development” has been used to describe those seminars related to teaching and learning designed to support and encourage faculty as they pursue excellence in their various roles of teaching, research and service, along with the professional goals of scholarship, promotion, and tenure. However, this year a number of requests were received to provide faculty development for departmental groups. Planning is ongoing with several departments in the School of Medicine, and once again T&E was asked to provide a series of seminars for the Women’s Leadership Council of the School of Medicine. T&E collaborated with a committee of senior faculty women to design a professional development program for senior women in the school, using basic MSD coursework. When the courses these groups select are from the Management and Staff Development program, the data for those sessions is reported under MSD.
Goals for FY06 For the coming year, our goal is to continue to build this program slowly, in collaboration with our colleagues from Organization Development and Diversity by responding appropriately to requests from division and department-level groups.
THE JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
The Center for Training and Education Annual Report FY04 21
CODING TRAINING FOR THE INTERNATIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF DISEASES
Current Activity This is the ninth year since the program’s inception. Mr. George Alex of Iatro, continues to be the sole instructor for this program. The program continues to rely on a web site designed by Iatro, with pre-tests, study exercises, and post-tests for each of these individual days of training, to supplement classroom instruction. In 2003, we reduced the program from a 22-day series to an 11-day series of sessions. Over the past few years, the number of university employees who need these courses has been on the decline, as T&E caught up with the back log demand that the program initially created. However, the demand for the program has increased, and we are considering offering a second set of sessions each year to reduce the number of people who are on the wait list, and the time an individual must wait before training is available. To meet the immediate need, we have moved the sessions from a 25 person classroom into the auditorium at Eastern. Professional Coding for the Medical Specialties training taught 17 days of training in FY05, for 340 participants, for a total cost to Staff Development Remission of $90,450.
Goals for FY06 Demand for this program is once again on the increase. In the past, additional sections of courses have been added when a sufficient wait list existed to justify them. Consideration is being given to offering each course twice a year.

The Center for Training and Education Annual Report FY04 22
TECHNICAL WORKSHOPS FOR LABORATORY EXCELLENCE
Current Activity There are two vendors that provide the Laboratory Excellence training:
• The Positive Laboratory Practices courses are taught by Baltimore City Community College
• The Cell Culture Laboratory Training and Technical Training in Molecular Biology tracks are taught by the BioTechnical Institute of Maryland. Dr. Tim Fawcett manages the program, under the direction of Dr. Sue Penno of the Cell Culture Lab of the Genetic Resources Core Facility of the School of Medicine.
The number of employees who can attend this program has decreased slightly because we are limited to the number of sessions we can schedule, and adding additional sessions is difficult. Employees beyond the number that will fit in the lab are added to the wait list for future sessions. The Laboratory Excellence program taught 14 days of training in FY05, for 144 participants, for a total cost to Staff Development Remission of $80,460.
Goals for FY06 • This program continues to have a steady following. We have occasionally
added sessions when the wait list warrants an additional group. • T&E continues to get occasional requests for centralized clinical training, but
since general funds are in short supply, no additions to this program have been made in the recent past.

EDUCATIONAL ASSISTANCE PLANS TUITION REMISSION PLAN
Status of Goals for FY05 • Monitoring of employees’ use of tuition remission continues with staff ensuring
university and federal compliance. Additionally, efforts to explain tuition remission policy and procedures to employees continued via telephone communication and articles.
Programs Covered
• Payment allowances are for part-time study and covers the courses offered through JHU's continuing education units of the academic divisions. The program is available to employees, spouses and dependent children. Department offerings (i.e. Athletic Center courses and workshops) are not covered by Tuition Remission.
Program Cost / Participation
• Employees participated at a cost of $7,902, 680; the cost for dependent children was $537,620. The two costs represent increases of 14.32% (employee) and 9.33% (dependent) respectively. FY04’s costs were $7,169,384 and $491,759 respectively.
• Two thousand eight hundred and eighty one employees (2,888) participated in the program during fall 04; the number was 2,289 for spring 05. The School of Professional Studies in Business and Education followed by the School of Arts & Sciences and Engineering and the Bloomberg School of Public Health received the majority of remission dollars transferred on employees’ behalf.
Observations The state of the Tuition Remission program can be summarized with the following observations:
• Over the last four years tuition remission costs have risen from $6,783,999 (FY02); to $7,241,811 (FY03); to $7,661,143 (FY04); and $8,440,300 (FY05). The cost of this program is increasing.
• The Tuition Remission program costs the university a significant sum given the small proportion of employees who participate in it. Fewer than ¼ of full-time employees participated in the Tuition Remission Plan at a cost of more than eight million dollars in FY05.
THE JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
The Center for Training and Education Annual Report FY04 29
• Divisions rely on this money to fund programs. It is impossible to predict what participation will be during any given year, or how the Schools will price their course work.
• Complaints regarding the $5,250 limit (for credit courses) are on the increase, and employees are expressing their dissatisfaction with this limit, as well as the limitation that restricts them to taking courses at JHU.
Regarding the administrative aspect of the program:
• Ad hoc ISIS reports created by HITS have rendered less cumbersome the reconciliation of paper tuition remission vouchers to corresponding electronic journals.
• For the second consecutive year in a row, Training and Education Program Assistant, Linda Scott, had to spend significant time re-entering data already entered by the divisional HR offices and Benefits Service Centers. The floppy diskettes received by the divisional HR offices and Benefits Services Centers containing demographic data were heavily corrupted and could not be used. Steps will be taken to investigate the root of this problem in FY06.
Goals for FY06 • Efforts will continue to ensure employees understand the tuition remission plan
so they may avail themselves of the benefit without unknowingly incurring debt. • The EAP manager will obtain additional ISIS training to develop the skill and
ability to create additional ad hoc ISIS reports, which will be helpful in managing the tuition remission plan.
• A yearly schedule for receiving journal vouchers from the Business Offices will be developed. At current a schedule is developed by the Controllers’ office and only for 1st, 2nd and 3rd closing.
• Another goal will be to arrange for Paradox training for T&E Program Assistant to ensure that she remains well prepared to handle the volume and content of employees and family members calling to inquire about the Tuition Remission Plan.

TUITION GRANT PLAN
Status of Goals for FY05
• The Training and Education Program Assistant position was filled with former JHU Accounts Payable staff member Kathy Ruth joining the department on 06/01/05.
Programs Covered • The Plan covers full-time undergraduate tuition and universal mandatory
academic fees for dependent children. Dependent children must: 1) be a U.S. citizen (resident alien or a resident of Canada or Mexico); 2) not file a joint return if married; 3) be a blood descendent of the first degree, or legally adopted or a stepchild; 4) receive from the employee over half of his total support for the calendar year, and 5) be under 19 years of age or a full-time student under the age of 24. Dependent children at the age of 24 may participate depending upon their calendar year income. This income level is decided by the IRS each year.
• Retirees’ dependent children and those of employees’ same sex domestic partners also may participate. A completed JHU Affidavit of Marriage/Same-Sex Domestic Partnership is required from employees with same-sex domestic partners. Employees participating in the plan on behalf of their same sex domestic partners are taxed on the value of the benefit.
• Fifty percent (or 100% for both employees/parents) of tuition, up to ½ the Hopkins' freshman undergraduate tuition, is covered at any degree-granting, accredited institution. The program limits dependent children to a total of four years of full-time study. Room and board, part-time and graduate studies and optional fees are not eligible.
Participation • Eleven hundred sixty four dependent children (1164) participated during fall 04.
For spring 05 the number was 1128 student participants. During fiscal year 04, 1,073 dependent children participated during both terms.
• One thousand fifty one employees (1051) submitted completed Tuition Grant Plan applications. Eight of those employees received 100% tuition support ($15,070) for more than one child.
• Faculty and officers represent the majority of users with bargaining unit members and retirees representing the smallest groups of users.
THE JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
The Center for Training and Education Annual Report FY04 31
Program Cost • Program cost totaled $11,006,889 in FY05. While divisional credits totaling
$11,729,000 exceeded expenses, because of last year’s unfunded expenses, the program ended with a deficit. This is the first year that the credits for the year exceeded the expenses for the year.
• Payments ranged from a low of $273.50 for one parent (employee) eligibility and $352.50 for two-parent (employee) eligibility to a high of $7,535 for one parent eligibility to $15,050 for two parent eligibility.
Observations • The Tuition Grant plan remains quite popular with staff and faculty. Participating
employees would like to see the process handled in a more transparent and expedient way. Given the current Dos based dBASE III system used in the Tuition Grant process, transparency and expediency are time consuming and in some respects next to impossible. However, an improved process is more plausible when the current system is replaced by a component of HopkinsOne.
• Staff received several calls throughout the year from biological parents (who may or may not have claimed their dependent children on their taxes) indicating to the office that they do not want their biological children to receive the tuition grant benefit. We’ve also had employees who are divorced call to ask the office not to provide information to their former spouse about the status of the tuition grant benefit. If the volume of these requests increase, consideration will have to be given to implementing a procedure that restricts staff to providing Tuition Grant related information only to employees and not to their family members.
Goals for FY06 • One goal is to continue working closely with T&E’s new hire Kathleen Ruth
providing software and hardware training for the purpose of ensuring that she remains well prepared to handle the volume and content of employees and family members calling to inquire the Tuition Grant Plan.
THE JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
The Center for Training and Education Annual Report FY04 32
TUITION REIMBURSEMENT
Status of Goals for FY05
• Employees participating in the program were reimbursed within 4 weeks of submitting proof of course completion paperwork.
Programs Covered
• Two Tuition Reimbursement Plans are available: The Tuition Reimbursement Plan for Bargaining Unit Staff and the Tuition Reimbursement Plan for Faculty and Staff in Outlying Areas (outside Baltimore and Washington metropolitan areas).
• The Bargaining Unit Plan provides $500 per calendar year for successfully completed credit and non-credit courses (not available at JHU). The faculty and staff plan provides $5,250 for credit courses. But the program does not cover non-credit courses and also is not available for family members.
Participation
• Twenty-two employees (22) participated in the plan; 6 senior staff (3xx); 7 administrative staff (4xx); 3 clerical; 6 technical clerical; and 1 bargaining unit member. Half the number of participants were reimbursed for only one course. This new number (22) reflects a 37.5% increase over FY04 when only 16 employees were reimbursed. Seventeen employees participated in FY03.
Costs and Cost-Effectiveness • The cost of the program almost doubled from $26,000 in FY04 to $48,800 in
FY05. FY03’s cost was $33,531.
Observations
• The program continues to cost the university a nominal sum of money rendering it cost effective to make available to employees. It also continues to play an important role in terms of leveling the field for employees in outlying areas. Through the Tuition Reimbursement Program, these employees are afforded opportunities to further their education in the same way their counterparts located on the Homewood and East Baltimore campuses are through the Tuition Remission Plan. Participation and cost are likely not to increase substantially.
• While reimbursements were generally made to employees within four weeks of
T&E’s receipt of employees’ proof of course completion paperwork, this was not true in every case. Numerous follow-up calls had to be made to employees
THE JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
The Center for Training and Education Annual Report FY04 33
and the colleges they attended regarding receipts that did not clearly reflect course titles and/or payment amounts for which the employees sought reimbursement.
Goals for FY06 • One goal is to work on communications for participating employees more fully
describing what is required so that it becomes more possible to get reimbursements to all participating employees within four weeks. It is important to remember that employees are paying out of pocket for these courses.
• A second goal is to arrange for Paradox training for T&E Program Assistant, Linda Scott, to ensure that she too remains well prepared to handle the volume and content of employees and family members calling to inquire about the Tuition Reimbursement Plan.
THE JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
The Center for Training and Education Annual Report FY04 34
STAFF DEVELOPMENT REMISSION
Status of Goals for FY05 • Sufficient resources were obtained for the program while staff continued
working to foster a better understanding of the program among JHU employees.
Programs Covered • The Staff Development Remission budget (9000-Z02-0039-0200) funded the
Financial and Information Technology Training Program, Management and Staff Development Program, and Leadership Development Program.
Costs and Cost-Effectiveness • The cost for the three programs totaled $1,811,767.00. Of that amount
$925,269 funded the MSD program; $212,850 funded the Leadership Development Program and $673,648 funded the IT training program (in the FITT area). Credits generated by the three programs totaled $1,823,927.00: $964,813, $180,438, 678,676 from MSD, LDP and FITT, respectively. LDP’s excesses were offset by (its) FY04’s surpluses.
Observations • The policy of charging department budgets for employees who register for
courses, but fail to attend or cancel with the required five days’ notice continues to offset some of the cost that would otherwise be charged to the Staff Development Remission budget. Over the course of the year $52,896; $5,193 and $14,085 (respectively) was collected from various departments to cover the cost of MSD, Leadership and FITT workshops which were missed for a total of $72,174.
Goals for FY06 • The continuing goal is to foster an in depth understanding of policy and
procedures among JHU employees. • A second goal is to ensure that T&E Program Administrative Coordinator, Mary
Lemon, has the appropriate training to ensure that she is able to continue coordinating the payment process for the Management and Staff Development and Leadership Development Programs as the university moves to implementing HopkinsOne.
