New Manager Training

ASU Career EDGE Training Opportunities

In 2019, ASU launched a new online job-related training tool for employees called ASU Career EDGE. This platform allows you to access courses from ASU departments and LinkedIn Learning. You can also track your learning, and supervisors can assign training (Search for ASU - Manager - Assign Training). You can also create and share playlists. 

Access ASU Career EDGE at career-edge.asu.edu or via My ASU.

You can also connect to your LinkedIn profile to post completed trainings directly to your LinkedIn profile.
