Adding a Training Form to a Person

Training Record Forms are how qualifications and compliance records are captured in Prestartr. Each Training Record is linked directly to a person's profile and feeds into the Training Matrix, giving you a real-time view of your workforce's compliance status. This guide walks you through creating a Training Record form from a person's profile.

  1. Open the left sidebar and click People.
  2. Locate the person you want to add training for and click their name to open their profile.

Certificate/License/Course Number Text No The certificate or license number issued by the training provider.

Assessment Date Date No The date the qualification was assessed or completed.
Note Text area No Any additional notes or context about this qualification.

Save the Training Record

  1. Once all relevant fields are completed, click the Save button (disk icon) in the top-right corner of the form.
  2. The Training Record will be saved and linked to the person's profile.
  3. The qualification will appear in the person's Training Matrix, contributing to compliance visibility across your workforce.

Tip: Always ensure the Expiry Date is set correctly when the qualification has a fixed validity period. Prestartr uses this date to drive compliance notifications and colour-coded status indicators in the Training Matrix — leaving it blank may mean upcoming expirations go undetected.
