Summary

Existing law requires the Department of Human Resources (CalHR) to devise plans for and cooperate with appointing powers and other supervising officials in the conduct of employee training programs so that the quality of service rendered by persons in the state civil service may be continually improved. This bill would require the State Department of Education, on or before January 1, 2015, to develop and make available online a state employee civics orientation on federal and state government, subject to a determination by the Department of Finance that sufficient private funding has been secured to support those activities. The bill would require, if the orientation is developed as prescribed, an employee, upon hiring, promotion, or reclassification after July 1, 2015, to complete that training and submit a certification statement to the appointing power or other supervising official. The bill would require the appointing power or other supervising official to maintain the certification statement for a period of 3 years and make it available to CalHR upon demand.
