Enable PES Training Application Process

Ticking this will allow users to create and submit applications for training courses.

This setting will :

  1. Enable users to view their existing training request and submit new ones.

  2. Enable managers to view and approve/reject/transfer requests they have received.

  3. 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.

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.

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.
