Employee discount. USPS employees can receive a discount on training from Pryor Learning Solutions to enhance their skills and aid their self-development.
Employees can pay $99 to receive 12 months of unlimited access to Pryor’s more than 7,000 free instructor-led seminars and 4,500 online courses that can be accessed 24/7 from a computer or mobile device.
Employees can also earn professional certifications and credits to add to their profile in the HERO learning portal.
Kenna Orioha, a USPS Management Foundations Program trainee who has participated in Pryor seminars, said she particularly enjoyed the in-person training courses.
“I was able to witness the instructor’s passion for the topic they were teaching, and was given the opportunity to collaborate with attendees from different companies in the area,” Orioha said.
Pryor, founded more than 40 years ago, has provided professional development programs for more than 11 million people.
