How to Complete Your Orientation/Annual HR Trainings
Each year, all employees are responsible for completing their assigned annual trainings. These are split into three systems: BambooHR, Paychex, and PAAS. Below is a quick guide on where to find everything and what to expect.
1. BambooHR Trainings
These notification for these trainings will appear in your BambooHR Training tab when they are due.
Just the notifications will be on the Training tab. Please pay close attention to the instructions below to learn how to find the training themselves.
How to Complete Them
- Go to BambooHR (linked here) → Training tab to see what’s due.
- If something shows as pending, then navigate to your BambooHR inbox (that's the little box in the upper right hand corner of the BambooHR page).
- Complete the task titled “Orientation/Annual Trainings.”
After you finish, HR will receive a notification and will manually update your completion status on the Training tab.
Not showing as complete yet?
Because HR updates these manually, please wait a few days.
Still not updated after a week? Reach out to us via the HR ticketing system.
2. Paychex Trainings
These include two courses:
- US Workplace Harassment CA — Manager/Non-Manager (due every two years)
- Preventing Bullying & Violence in the Workplace (due every year)
For new hires, these two trainings will be included in the "New Hire Orientation Training" journey. Be sure to save the certificate and send it over to HR!
How to Complete Them
- Log in to Paychex, linked here.
- Find the box labeled “Training.”
- Click it to enter the training portal.
- Look under “My Training” to see your assigned courses, complete them, and send over the certificates to HR via our ticketing system.
How do I download my Paychex certificate(s)?
1. In the same place you found your training, hover over the course and click "Details"
2. Click "View Certificate"
3. Click download and save the PDF the same way as you would any file.
3. PAAS Trainings
PAAS provides two required annual courses:
HIPAA Training
- FWA (Fraud, Waste, & Abuse) Training
Make sure you save these certificates, too, and send them over to HR!
The first time you need to complete the training (usually on your orientation day), you will be sent an account invite from HR via email from PAAS. Once you create your account, you'll immediately have access to the training.
For those who have already completed their PAAS training for the first time, PAAS sends yearly email reminders with your training link. If you can’t find the email, just search “PAAS” in your inbox — the link should be there.
How do I download my PAAS certificate(s)?
Once you've completed your training in PAAS, it should automatically bring you to download your certificates. If not, complete these steps:
- Click "My Documents"
2. Click "Download Certificate"
How Long Will This Take?
Completing all annual trainings across BambooHR, Paychex, and PAAS typically takes 2–4 hours total.
