Planning employee training

Employee training and personal development are a necessity these days. Career plans are individual training programs for each employee, aimed at preparing them to move up the career ladder. Developing a company career plan motivates employees to grow and makes them feel more valued. This is either due to the personal development of people in companies or to meet the obligations in employee qualifications imposed by law or market requirements. Aptien makes the coordination of employee training and development easier by helping you plan and confirm all employee training activities. 

  • Setting up a training plan for each employee 

  • confirming the completion of training activities

Training and education plan for each employee  

You can create a training plan for different jobs or for each employee individually. When you create your training plan, you set up individual training sessions in one of three options:

  • Individual training only for a selected employee
  • training for all employees in the selected position
  • training for all employees 

When setting up training, you also select whether it is one-off training, a course, or whether it is recurring training for which the system automatically monitors the recurrence and notifies you when the period is completed. 

  • One-off training
  • Periodic training

A clear annual training plan for all employees

The annual outlook gives you an overview of who needs to attend what and when. What training or courses he/she has to attend. The overview shows all activities in the next 12 months. You can export the overview to an excel spreadsheet and work with it further.

Confirmation of completion of training and educational activities

Once the training plan is set up, you can confirm the completion of the training activity for each employee, i.e. that the employee has completed the training. When confirming, you can comment on how and where and you can also attach proof of completion.
This is typically a scanned confirmation or certificate of completion of training. In addition, the document will be automatically filed in the employee's personnel file where it will be available to you.
