Get proof that I have completed training?

  1. Once you have completed a course, a confirmation email will be sent to your email address within a few minutes.
    • You should save or print this confirmation email and keep it for your records, as it serves as official proof of your course completion.
    • If you do not receive a confirmation email, it is likely you do not have an email address in the Human Resources system or student database.
    • Employees may change or add an email address at the “Self Service” section of UC Path.  Once changed, it will take a day or two for the UC Learning Center to receive the new information.
