electrical degree that I need. That will help
open up other opportunities for me here at

Piloting the TRC Academy for Managers to augment the coaching, mentorship and supervisory skills of our leaders.
Through the TRC Academy we deliver a wide variety of professional development, compliance and required training. All new employees are enrolled in the
Academy as part of the on-boarding process. Employees are assigned specific
required courses. They can also access numerous other courses tailored to a
variety of topics to comply with regulatory requirements and licenses, training
to maintain professional and state licenses, and continuing education courses
for business understanding, development, and enrichment.
TRC recognizes the benefits to and from employees enhancing their professional capabilities and qualifications through formal education. In specific and
appropriate circumstances TRC will share or pay the cost of formal education
through the Tuition Reimbursement Program for coursework that is directly
applicable to the employee’s job function at TRC.
Additionally, the Company encourages membership in at least one technical
society or association related to an employee’s technical specialty.

Managers Training in FY14. Target renewed in FY15 as pilot program.
