For Local 2627 members in competitive job titles, the only way to attain permanent civil service status is to be hired off an established civil service list. The only way to get on one of these lists is to pass a civil service exam. To find out more about these civil service exams and lists, click here.
When civil service exams are given for Local 2627 titles we arrange training sessions for our members. If you plan to take any of these exams, we urge you to attend the appropriate class. You will be notified about upcoming classes automatically if you are on the Local 2627 e-alert list. To register for the Local 2627 e-alert list, click here.
Civil Service exams for Local 2627 job titles are generally education & experience exams. Members who have successfully completed computer courses that are relevant to a particular job title receive higher scores on exams for that title. See Tuition Reimbursement below.
Courses on the Internet are eligible for tuition reimbursement the same as courses in the classroom (see Tuition Reimbursement, above).
In addition, Local 2627 has an arrangement with Enterprise Training. When one of our members passes an Enterprise Training on-line course and files for tuition reimbursement the benefit does not stop there. As far as Enterprise Training is concerned, when the member pays for the initial course he or she was actually paying for a year's worth of on-line courses. The member can take as many on-line courses from Enterprise Training as he or she likes for the rest of the year at no additional cost. To go to Enterprise Training's Local 2627 page, click here.
