Best Practices:

• Create incentives: offer certificates for training initiatives. Require that employees participate in training in order to be considered for promotion. Include participants in upcoming court newsletter or recognize participation through an article in the local newspaper.

• Allow days away from the court for training initiatives to develop specialized skills. Allowing staff to attend off-site seminars sends a strong message that the court wants them to continue in their learning in order to better serve in their job.

• Distribute announcements for job opening within the court. This sends a message to employees that you believe there are qualified people within the system.
