Create and Assign Training Roles

CONTENTS: • CREATING A TRAINING ROLE • ASSIGNING TRAINING ROLES TO EMPLOYEES • ATTACHING COURSES TO A TRAINING ROLE • EDITING TRAINING ROLES • CHECKING AN EMPLOYEE’S TRAINING COMPLIANCE

OVERVIEW:

To ensure that each employee receives the training they need, Training Roles are created for each type of employee. For example, all people with a Role of Maintenance Mechanic will be assigned a bundled set of Courses, and those with a Role of Welders will be assigned a different set of courses. 

 

Supervisors typically create the Training Roles, and attach one or more courses to each Role. Each set of courses may consist of safety-related, skill/certification-related, and core company training requirements. Supervisors then assign each employee to one or more Training Roles. 

 

The system is designed to consolidate all training information in one place for easy reference. At any time, a supervisor can track the training status of their employees, regarding upcoming, completed or missed Courses. For details on this, see the tutorial Check and Update Training Status Records.
