Training Courses

 

A simple list of training courses for items in the certification repository can be defined in the system. A training course is associated with a certificate definition in the certification repository.

 

One or more training courses, with the same or different course dates, can be associated to the same certificate.

 

Employees (course candidates) can be added to or removed from a training course prior to the start date and without exceeding the number of places available. Once the course start date has been reached the candidate list cannot be changed.

 

Each training course definition stores;
