ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY
One of the largest universities in the country, California State University, Northridge (CSUN) is an urban, comprehensive university that delivers award-winning undergraduate and graduate programs to nearly 40,000 students annually and counts more than 330,000 alumni who elevate Southern California and beyond. Since its founding in 1958, CSUN has made a significant and long-term economic impact on California, generating nearly $1.9 billion in economic impact and more than 11,700 jobs each year. The LAEDC recognized CSUN as its 2015 Eddy Award winner for its positive economic impact.

Training Coordinator Jobs in California: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a training coordinator in California?
A bachelor's degree in human resources, education, organizational development, or a related field is the standard starting point for training coordinator roles in California. While California does not require a state-issued license for most training coordinator positions, earning a professional credential such as the ATD Certified Professional in Talent Development strengthens competitiveness. Many California employers, especially in healthcare and public agencies, also require demonstrated experience with compliance or safety training programs.
Which companies hire training coordinators in California?
Employers hiring training coordinators in California right now include California State University, ZERO IMPACT ENERGY, and Education for Change, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. California's large healthcare networks, state government agencies, and enterprise technology companies consistently generate some of the most steady training coordinator openings in the state.
Which California cities have the most training coordinator jobs?
Los Angeles, Fontana, and Fremont have the highest concentration of training coordinator openings in California. Los Angeles and San Francisco lead because of their dense clusters of corporate headquarters, healthcare systems, and large public employers, while San Diego's military, biotech, and healthcare sectors generate steady demand for training and compliance coordinators.
Are there remote training coordinator jobs in California?
Yes, and more than many comparable roles, particularly for positions focused on e-learning development, virtual facilitation, and learning management system administration. About 8% of training coordinator openings tied to California are remote or hybrid as of June 2026, reflecting how much of the coordination and content development work can be done off-site. Roles involving hands-on new-hire orientation or safety training are more likely to require an in-person presence.
How can I get hired as a training coordinator in California with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving laterally from an adjacent role such as administrative coordinator, HR assistant, or subject-matter expert within a company that already has a training function. Large California employers including Kaiser Permanente, the University of California system, and major county governments often post entry-level training assistant or learning and development coordinator roles that do not require prior training experience. Building a portfolio of a few self-developed training materials or completing an ATD certificate program gives candidates a concrete edge in California's competitive market.
Where can I find and apply to training coordinator jobs in California?
You can find and apply to training coordinator jobs in California on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers hiring across the state. Search the available roles, find positions that match your background and location preferences, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
