Assign External Training Records

Written by Human-Focus

This section allows managers to create and manage external training providers and courses. External training can then be assigned to specific user groups to ensure the relevant users are aware of the required training. It also allows organisations to add internal training if the required course is not available in the existing list.
​

The following options are available on this page:

  • Assign External Training Record
    ​


    ​

  • Add Internal Training
    ​


    ​

  • Import Training Provider & Courses
    ​

      ​


      ​

Import Training Provider & Courses

Use this option to add multiple Training Providers and Training Titles (courses) at once using an Excel file, instead of creating them one by one. This is useful before bulk uploading training records, because any provider or course in your upload must already exist in the system.
​

You can use this import to:

  • Add new Training Providers together with their courses

  • Add new courses to a Training Provider that already exists

How to import Training Providers & Courses

  1. Go to Training Records Management

  2. Select Import Training Provider & Courses.
    ​

  3. Download the Excel template.
    ​

  4. Fill in the template, with one row per course:

    • Training Provider: the name of the provider. To add a course to an existing provider, enter the provider name exactly as it appears in the system.

    • Training Title: the name of the course.

  5. Save the file and upload it.

  6. If every row in the file is valid, your Training Providers and courses are uploaded straight away. No further action is needed.

  7. If your file contains errors
    ​

    Rows without errors are uploaded as normal. Rows with errors are shown on screen so you can fix them.

    • Fields with an error are marked in red.

    • The number of errors in each row is shown on the right, for example Error (1).

    To fix the errors, choose one option:

    • Submit After Correction(s): correct the fields on screen, then click this button.

    • Export to Excel: download the error rows, fix them in Excel, and upload again.

    • Discard: remove the error rows. Rows that were already uploaded stay saved.
