See our guide on how to create an Event.
The way to make this a training event and have this appear in the user's training records is shown below.
There is also the option to add a qualification code to the Event so it can be used as a step in a Learning Path but this is not required.
1. Create the Event
Add a new Event and look out for the fields below to ensure it is set up to be marked as a training event.
- Webinar/Online event
- Select this option to add Joining Details alongside the Event Details. This can be information needed to join the event, like a Teams meeting link or similar, as well as any further instructions attendees may need.
- Location
- If the Event is in person, add the location with Google Maps (If the API for this has been set up on your site) or manually type this in.
- Mark as a training event
Select this box to ensure that once users have been marked as attended, the system creates an entry in their training record to showcase this.
- Set qualification code (Learning path only)
Allow the Event to be used in a Learning path step.
Create a new code in the field to attribute to the Event for use in the Learning path.
2. Mark users as attended
Once the Event has taken place, an administrator can mark those who attended in the 'attendee registration' area and ensure this is added to their Training Record.
Select all users who attended, scroll down and click 'Save attendance' to apply this.
A pop-up will appear to confirm that all users selected will have an entry created in their Training record for the Event upon saving.
Following this check the user's training record from their profile in People has been updated with the Event.
