Credits

A numeric field which indicates how many Credits the Course is worth.

Status

A selection field which indicates whether the Course is "Active" or "Inactive". To retain historical training data for Courses which are no longer in use, set the Status to "Inactive". This will allow you to exclude or include the Inactive records in reports as needed.

Version Tab


 

Field or Form Element

Description

Required

A toggle field (Yes/No) which indicates whether the course version is required. This field is used in conjunction with "Version based" Requirements (it has no impact if you do not have Requirements set up for the course). You can set it to "No" for minor changes in a training document such as a typo, so it doesn't require re-training. Set to "Yes" if the change does require re-training.

Version

A numeric field used to track the version number for a course.

Effective Date

A date field to record when the Course Version becomes effective. If you have version based Requirements configured, this is the date when the new version becomes effective, and it is the deadline for re-training to avoid an "Overdue" status.

Document Number

A text field which allows numbers and letters to identify the Document Number used for training materials (for example an SOP Number).

Document Version

A text field which allows numbers and letters to identify the version of document used for training with the corresponding course version.
