SafetySpot has launched a new feature for the Training Center. Training managers may now group a number of trainings under one set for an organization. When going into the training manager to add a new training, there is now the option to add, or begin, a training set. From there individual trainings may be added. Training sets previously added, along with all of the lessons attached, may also be added to a new training set in its entirety. For example, if 3 lessons were added to a lab safety training set, this entire set including the 3 lessons can be added to a new hire training set, if needed.
There is currently no limit on the number of trainings that may go into a set.
Yes, there is an option to view enrollment under details of a training set.
Importing training sets can be useful for different reasons. You may need to import a training set if some of the lessons required are the same for another training set. Also, for restricted access equipment, managers may import the entire training set needed for access to that equipment.

Managers now have the option to view the member list in a table view. With this layout, managers are able to see, along with the contact info and other information, which members have incomplete training assignments pending. Managers may also quickly send a reminder to the member, via email or text, to complete this assignment.
A check-mark under training indicates that this member has no incomplete or pending assignments.
Safety Spot will remind all users of any required training that they have not yet completed. However, a manager can now send the user an email or text message reminder that they have outstanding required training.
There are several ways to assign required training to a user's curriculum. For more information, you can check out our How To on assigning training to users!

Safety Spot now has a new feature for managers to report and communicate any events that took place at a particular site. If any work needs to be done and reported to the organization, managers can go into Reports and record events pertinent to the site. This feature includes the ability to attach equipment to the report, if the report includes a particular piece of equipment that may have been damaged or malfunctioning in some way, i.e. smoking, won't turn on, or making noises. From there, managers can update reports by marking any action taken and recording the service order number for this repair reaction.
Using this feature, managers may also generate a report for any date or dates, and view all activity for that time frame. This report may be printed or downloaded as a pdf.
A Site Activity Report is a feature that lets users record daily activities. This is ideal for routine inspections or equipment logging. Dates and activities for each entry, along with the selected equipment, are saved for future data analysis.
Users with manager status are able to create, edit, and delete activities. Regular users are able to view reports posted to the bulletin board.
Yes, a manager is able \"Quick Add\" equipment from this feature.

Safety Spot has launched a new feature for trainers. The training management module now includes Training Sessions. Training Sessions allow trainers to create and manage training sessions within the online training module. Trainers can now create sessions, such as a fall or spring sessions. Sessions may be toggled opened and closed to better manage enrollment and required trainings.
No, when enrolling in a course, students are only able to view and enroll in open sessions. Closed session will not show up in the selection bar.
Not at the moment. Our team is actually working to implement this feature soon.
The enrolled session may be changed; however, this must be done by a trainer.
If a refund is required, please contact Safety Spot at help@safetyspot.com
