While there’s much to be said about the convenience of working in your sweatpants or yoga pants, remote work comes with a fair share of challenges. You may be finding that it’s not as easy as you thought to stay focused, build consensus while physically distanced, maintain strong working relationships, manage a team or even navigate your own emotional well-being.

That’s why UCOP Learning and Development is offering a series of “remarkable remote” workshops from People-OnTheGo. Each course takes a thoughtful approach to the telecommuting experience, addressing challenges in various situations and offering practical solutions for addressing them. All course participants are fellow UCOP employees, giving you an opportunity to connect with cross-departmental colleagues during in-course breakout sessions. Your colleagues have rated these classes a 4.5 out of 5!
