Records Organization Overview

How are training records organized?

The Active Learner database helps you keep track of your company’s training needs. It answers questions like "what training must an employee take by year end," "what courses are required for this job," and "what courses are required by government mandates."

Active Learner organizes training records into the following categories:

	Employees		Course Groups
	Information about employees, such as their names, addresses, phone numbers, birth dates and shifts.		Collections of related courses. For example, courses that teach fire prevention might be grouped as Fire Basics. Course groups can be subject groups based on topic or mandate groups based on regulations.
	Jobs		Classes
	Positions held by employees in the company, such as Forklift Operator, Lab Technician I, or Maintenance Foreman. Each job has a curriculum, which is a set of courses that teaches skills needed to perform the job.		Events where instructors teach one or more courses at designated times and places.
	Courses		Instructors
	Units of training that teach skills required for a job.		People who teach classes. These individuals may or may not be employees of your company.
	Historical Records
	Training and job history information, including completed courses and grades received and past and present jobs held.
