Self-development is voluntary, off-the-clock training which an employee chooses to take in order to meet self-determined goals or personal objectives. Self-development is not directly related to the employee’s current job or definite future assignment, and is separate from any mandatory or assigned training.
Self-development provides all USPS® employees the opportunity to learn something new, grow personally and enhance current skillsets, or prepare for professional certifications for free.
There are over 3,000 self-development courses in HERO, which include categories such as leadership, project management, legal compliance, information technology skills, mobile devices and computer skills, finance and accounting, professional effectiveness, and human resources.
All employees can access this no-cost benefit through the Learning portal in HERO.
Most employees can access self-development courses any time off-the-clock by logging into HERO through LiteBlue on their personal device or computer. Those who have the ability to view or impact another employee’s training records (through elevated access) can access self-development courses in HERO through Blue outside of their regular work hours and with advance approval, if Postal Service™ resources are used.
