Dear Payroll Managers and Timekeepers,

As a friendly reminder, Kronos WBT (Web-Based Training) for Payroll Managers and Timekeepers is now live and accessible in the UCSB Learning Center. To access the WBT, follow these steps:

1. Go to the UCSB Learning Center website
2. Click “UC Learning Center Employee Login”
3. Log in with your netID and password
4. Click “Find A Course”
5. Search for “Kronos”

Effective February 18th, new Payroll Managers and Timekeepers need to complete all three modules before being provisioned with Payroll Manager/Timekeeper access in Kronos. Our goal is to give Payroll Managers and Timekeepers a better understanding of Kronos before they begin working with the system. In order to complete each module, users will need to pass an end-of-module quiz with a score of at least 80%. Completion of the WBT will be verified by the Timekeeping support team when Payroll Manager/Timekeeper access is requested for an employee.

A summary of each module is listed below:
