Banner Training Information

Welcome to the Bridgewater State College Banner Systems Training site. This site is your complete information source for all Banner related training at Bridgewater State College.

Training is required for most new users of the Banner system. Access to the Banner system will be established only for those users who complete the required training. These classes are primarily geared to Administrators, Support Staff, Deans, Dept. Chairs, and Program Coordinators. Training is not required for most faculty who use Banner Web for Faculty.

Please keep in mind that you must register for this training. There will be no "walk-in" enrollment.

Banner training classes are open for registration via Element K. Classes are offered each month throughout the year. These training classes run from approximately two to three hours and will provide you with all the technical skills and procedural knowledge you need to use Banner.

If you have any questions/comments about the Banner system or about Banner training, please send an email to: Banner@bridgew.edu.
