Understanding Employee-Entered Codes for External Learning
Employees can use self-service programs to enter and revise their competency information for external education and training. When employees update their training or educational degree information, they might find that the training course, provider, or educational institution does not exist in the predefined list and, therefore, they add a code to the external training list. After an employee enters a new code for external learning, the administrator can change, approve, or reject the code. If the administrator accepts the code, it appears in the predefined list and is available to other employees who subsequently update their external learning information. If the code is rejected, the administrator must notify the employee of the reason. The administrator can also view the competencies associated with an external training course, provider, or educational institution entered by an employee.
