To locate a course in OPUS, try restricting your search by using only one of the words in the name of the course. If your search still does not display a course, there are several explanations:

• The course may be restricted to certain learner group(s) and therefore would not be listed as being open to all consortium members.
• The course may not presently be offered. OPUS displays current and future date courses, not courses that occurred in the past.

If a particular course is not offered, contact Human Resources at learning@pinellas.gov or (727) 464-3367, option 2. Based on needs and resources available, additional learning options may be made available.

No. Your OPUS request is reviewed by your supervisor and, if approved, is then sent to OLM to confirm seat availability.

• You are enrolled in a course when you receive an email from WFEPRD confirming that you have successfully enrolled in the course. If you have not received that email, then you are not enrolled.
• You can view your course enrollments at any time by logging into OPUS, selecting PIN OLM Learner and Learner Home. Click Current Learning under the Learn Home tab, and you will see all the courses you are currently enrolled in.
• If a course is full you may have been placed on the waiting list. To check, click the Requested Learning tab to view your list of course names (if none display click the ‘ + ‘ sign to the left of the word Enrollments). Courses are displayed from oldest to newest, so click the Start Date column heading to display the newest courses first. If the course you requested is displayed and you are wait-listed, then it will display Wait Listed in the status column.
