I cannot find a course I need.
Please make sure the course you need is actually offered through GCALS. There are a few training organizations that the GDC utilizes to deliver training to our staff. We have listed a few of the common training courses that our staff takes that are not offered through GCALS in the hopes of assisting you. If you need a course that you cannot find on GCALS or in these links, please create a ticket so we can try to locate the training you need.
Please note: If a course that is offered by GPSTC is failed, a $15 per credit hour fee will be required by them to retake the course.
