Dataset Request: Employee education

Request for all available information pertaining to staff education and training including:
• List of mandatory training classes
• List of optional training
• Tax-dollars spent on training, a breakdown per department, and totals for overall mandatory training and optional classes.
• A list of all classes attended.
• Percentage of staff in each department utilizing classes

This is exactly the type of data that should be freely available to residents already in the Open Data Portal—in fact much similar datasets are listed in other counties’ Open Data Portals such as reimbursement amounts for education, percentage of employees utilizing optional training, breakdown per department and so on.
