Employee Authorization

The Employee Authorization and Employee Authorization Approval options are used to maintain records related to the current authorization status of employees. This is useful if the employee’s current License (or other Authorization certification) must be continually updated by taking specific Training Courses, or meeting other specific eligibility criteria.

Pre-requisites are defined and employees who do not meet the pre-requisite criteria will not be granted Authorization. The Employee Authorization and Employee Authorization Approval process involves:

1. A “template” for the Authorization Code is created via Training/ Update/ Employee Authorization. The template contains the eligibility criteria that must be met by the employee for Employee Authorization Approval to be awarded. Specific: Authorization Codes, Skills, Licenses, and Training Courses can all be designated as pre-requisites to obtain Employee Authorization Approval.
2. Employee records are created via Training/ Update/ Employee Authorization Approval. The records are validated against the template to determine whether the employee is eligible for Authorization Approval. First and Second Level Approvals are possible.

The following is the basic life cycle of the Training Process, particularly the Employee Authorization utilized to set up Employee Prerequisites:

Once the necessary Employee Prerequisites have been created and met, employees can be added to courses through Training Class Enrollment.
