Getting Started with Training Manager
Who is this article for?Users who are going to use the module day-to-day.
Training User (TRGUSR) or higher permissions are required.
The purpose of Training Manager is to allow an organisation to retain records of training received (or to be received) by individuals to ensure and demonstrate compliance with training requirements within an organisation at both corporate and individual levels.
If defined Training Manager automatically generates emails which prompt the Trainee to take required action in relation to a Training Record. The application sends the Trainee emails prompting required action prior to any future training date, until the trainee has confirmed their training record.
Training Manager also allows Training Records to be created and maintained for users who do not work for the organisation. Their training records can be Auto-Confirmed, or Training Administrators have the ability to confirm Training records on their behalf separately.
We recommend following the below diagram as you work your way through configuring each area, to ensure all records are stored correctly.
