Employee support resources available
Our employees deliver critical services to Americans, and a thriving and ready workforce is key to managing and conserving our nation’s forests and grasslands. As employees continue to work hard, maintain standards of excellence and successfully deliver on the agency’s multi-use mission, they have access to a number of resources to help navigate changes.
A schedule of virtual live training events can be found here.

Resources for Supervisors
Supervisor Training
Supervisor training for both new and experienced supervisors in the Forest Service received a refresh with several fixes and updates rolled out over the past few weeks in AgLearn. New supervisors are reminded to complete the New Supervisor Training program during their first year as part of their onboarding requirements. In addition, all experienced supervisors—those who have been in their roles for more than one year—must complete the Experienced Supervisor Training course now available in AgLearn.
The Experienced Supervisor Training course has been updated to include the latest learning modules that reflect current expectations and best practices for Forest Service leadership. Information about these and other opportunities can be found on our SharePoint page.
Don’t miss this opportunity to sharpen your skills and stay aligned with Forest Service leadership standards.
Supervisor Learning Community
The Forest Service Supervisor Learning Community is a platform for all Forest Service supervisors to receive updates and reminders, build relationships with peers, and engage in dialogue about important topics. Supervisors can request to join the community here.
The Forest Service Supervisor Toolkit is a resource hub for all information and links a supervisor may need to perform their duties. This toolkit contains a supervisor task schedule, a points of contact list and information related to new supervisors; systems access; hiring, onboarding, managing, and offboarding employees; and personal development and leadership resources.
