The department's mission is to strategically partner with county departments to effectively attract, retain, develop, nurture, compensate, manage and lead a world-class workforce.
To accomplish this mission, Riverside's HR department has a number of divisions, programs and systems in place. One of these systems is the TrainingPartner™ Learning Management System, purchased from GeoMetrix Data Systems.

NACo's annual Achievement Awards recognizes innovative county government programs. This is a non-competitive awards program and each entry is judged on its own merits.
