Ticking this will allow users to create and submit applications for training courses.
This setting will :
Enable users to view their existing training request and submit new ones.
Enable managers to view and approve/reject/transfer requests they have received.
Allow automatic PES Email alerts to be setup so that the relevant individuals can be kept informed in each stage of the training approval process.
Employees will be able to submit requests for trainings that they want to undertake for self-development. The outcomes of these requests will be recorded within the relevant employee’s PES assessment for consideration during their evaluation. Switched off by default.
When enabled a new section 'Training Applications' will be enabled on the top navigation bar.
View My Request Tab will display a list of all pending training requests that have been submitted by the logged in user and any requests received from others approval. The list will default to the current reporting year. Select reporting year from the dropdown if required. To display completed requests, tick 'Show Completed Request' check box.
View icon is displayed adjacent to requests that are submitted by the logged in user. This will allow him/her to view the requests that have already been actioned/received approval.
Action icon is displayed adjacent to requests that are received and are pending for approval. User can action these requests by approving/rejecting/transferring the requests.
To approve a request click action icon and click on Approve or Reject. Also you can transfer approval to another manager using 'Change Approval Manager' function.
When a request is approved the training course/development goal will be added to the assessment (development goal element) of the requested user for the given reporting year.
Note: this must happen only if the following conditions are met:
An assessment has been created for the given reporting year.
‘Development Goal’ element added into it.
The assessment is in Setup or Self-Assessment phase. Once the Self-Assessment phase is ‘Finished’ by the assessee, the training course must not get added automatically (as the user cannot give a self-rating and therefore will skew the average ratings).
The Estimated Date, Total Cost (TC Budget field in assessment), Cost Code and Priority must also be populated into the new training record that is added in the assessment. ‘Priority’ will be introduced to the assessment as a new field.
When a request is rejected an email will be triggered to the requested user informing of the same. Note that the e-mails have to be configured prior to this.
