David
Knapp and Tracey Sparks of Kentucky TRAIN reviewed Learner Training Plans in
today’s TRAIN Update, Learner Segment. A great number of Local
Health Departments have been utilizing the Training Plan feature for
delivering, monitoring annual required trainings like bloodbourne Pathogen,
HIPAA and TB which employees are required to take once a year. Also,
Local Health Department administrators are able to monitor the plans and
download reports used for PHAB accreditation.
The
My Training Plan section found on the TRAIN home page under the Dashboard
contains all of your Training Plans. A Training Plan is a group of courses that
have been identified by an administrator – you must complete all courses in
order to complete the Training Plan. Training Plans can be assigned to
you directly by an Administrator or you can sign up for a Training Plan through
the Course Search.
Training
Plans you have added to your own account through the Course Search are
identified by the Personal Icon. You can remove these plans from your list at
any time. Training Plans added to your account by an administrator are
identified by the Administrator Icon which contains the letter A. These plans
cannot be removed from your account and you must complete the Training Plan by
the Target Completion Date to receive credit.
The
Target Completion Date can be set or edited unless it has been established by
an administrator. You must still open and register for each individual
course (by clicking the course name) to continue through the plan. Having a
Training Plan assigned to your account does not
automatically
register you for each course. Training Plan Administrators are able to monitor
your progress through the plan – be sure to meet
your
Target Completion dates!
