MIT shall provide to employees any and all training that is reasonably necessary in order for an employee to safely and appropriately fulfill their work duties. Such training shall be at no cost to the employee. All such training shall be considered part of the required workload/working hours of the employee. Notification shall be provided to the employee of mandatory training as soon as practical once such training is set.
If an employee believes that training available at MIT or elsewhere could enhance their work, they may propose such training to their immediate supervisor for good-faith consideration. If approved, such training will be at no cost to the employee and will be considered part of their required workload/working hours.
If the Union notifies MIT regarding the need for employee-specific training opportunities beyond those already offered pursuant to the preceding paragraphs, MIT will engage with the Union in good faith to determine whether any such optional training opportunities will be offered and/or funded. MIT reserves the right to determine which optional training opportunities will ultimately be provided.
