As an External Partner working with ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ, you may be required to complete mandatory training. If you are unclear what training you are required to do you should speak to the person who is responsible for hiring you, or use our training support pages.
In order to complete any mandatory training you will require access to myDevelopment, the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ’s online training and talent management system.
How to Access Your Training in myDevelopment: External Partners
-
This page provides training information for External Partners. An External Partner is someone engaged outside of the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ HR system. They don’t have a HR personnel number. This includes contractors, individuals engaged via ACON and freelancers engaged outside of SmartBook.
-
If you are a Freelancer engaged via Smartbook, please visit this page to view your training information.
What You Need to Know:
You will receive an invite to your personal email address to register for ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Login. Once you’ve submitted this, a manager will approve it and you’ll be able to log in to myDevelopment via Single Sign-On (³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Login) up to 14 days before your start date.
When you have set up your authentication, you will be able to log into via ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Login. If you already have a ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ IT account and email address you can continue to use this to access myDevelopment. We recommend that the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Login account using your personal email address is set up in case the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ IT account and email is removed and access to systems is still needed.
Help & Support
If you have any questions, please speak to your ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ contact. A training guide outlining the process for External Partners and how to set up security steps in ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Login is provided below.
