Placing Responsibility at a Single Point
Training compliance is an important part of attaining and maintaining quality certifications. Organizations typically place training tracking responsibility with a specific department. The individual this is then assigned to is put in a difficult spot. This person is tasked with collecting requirements from multiple departments, committees, and teams they know nothing about. Most staff treat training compliance with disdain and the information provided is frequently incomplete. This incomplete information results in more communications necessary to arrange records into a minimally acceptable state. This type of chaotic approach frantically repeated before each subsequent audit puts your quality certifications at risk.
“Most staff treat training compliance with disdain and the information provided is frequently incomplete”
Training tracking software can be used to help in this process; however, most miss the mark in automating the process to it’s full extent. In most tracking applications requirements are defined haphazardly and frequently focus on individuals. Instead of creating a solid organizational scaffolding, they create a fluid mix of requirements, options, talent management, and wish lists. In addition, most training tracking software still relies on that single person to endlessly coax, verify, and massage information from numerous organizational units to maintain an up-to-date system.
Easy Training Tracker approaches the challenge of training compliance differently. Using its unique training assignment method, the framework of your organizational training requirements can be constructed using layers of function-based classifications. Using these classifications, your employees, supervisory staff, and application administrator are notified at appropriate times regarding what training is needed, expired, or expiring.
Adding to these core configuration tools; Easy Training Tracker also provides the ability of the person defining requirements to enter it themselves. Instead of relaying information to a person outside a core skill group, the person overseeing that group can create classes, assign training, and use reporting tools for employees that fall within those they manage. This places responsibility at the exact place it should be. A place where it can be acted on directly.
Easy Training Tracker methodically tackles the steps required to track training for compliance purposes. It provides targeted functionality to create a training map of your organization and configuration tools for your supervisory staff in addition to a host of other features. It can end ongoing cross-departmental games of cat and mouse, virtually eliminate record maintenance, and lower costs. More importantly, it allows you to eliminate training compliance non-conformances during your quality certification audits.
