Welcome to the UI Supervisors’ Toolbox, a resource designed to complement the Supervisor Training@Iowa initiative. 

Throughout these pages, you’ll find information and links that support topics covered in Supervisor Training@Iowa modules—use them to refresh your knowledge, find specific info on policies and processes, or delve deeper into supervisor training topics. This toolbox will develop over time, so check back periodically for new material.

Note that the Supervisors’ Toolbox is not a substitute for the online or in-person training required of UI supervisors starting in 2020. Find more information about training requirements on the main Supervisor Training@Iowa site.
