Adding employee roles / Assigning courses to roles

Setting up employee roles and training regimes (full variants only)

Introduction to employee roles

  • Employee roles can be set up by employers or by training providers.
  • Each role can have one or more linked courses which then form the basic training requirement for anyone in that role.
  • When an employee is allocated a specific role the required training courses are automatically added to their training and qualifications requirements.
  • Clients in receipt of training from outside agencies can access roles and training requirements established by the training agency in addition to any roles that they establish themselves

Course added to training requirement for role

Any selected courses will be added to the training requirement for the role and will be automatically added to the training and qualifications list for any employee who is subsequently given that role.

NOTE: If you change the training requirement for a role, employees already in that role will NOT have their training requirements altered. If you need to add specific courses to the training requirement of employees already in the role you will need to do so manually.
