Insurance Training:
This will be a brief training. You may be asked or assigned to be the Insurance Liaison for your school(s). This training will help show how to get employees logged into and navigate the website for open enrollment. You are not an adviser about the insurance programs. Employees can call HR with their specific questions about insurance choices.

Work/Planning Time:
 * You could use this time to complete your PLAN
 * You can go back to one of your schools if there is time
