For shops and retail chains

Know every colleague is trained for the shop floor.

Keep store inductions, age-restricted sales refreshers, conflict training and food hygiene with each colleague, so store managers can see who is trained for the shop floor.

14-day free trial. No card required.

A retail training matrix in SkillProof with fictional staff: a certificate is uploaded from a phone, approved, and the cell turns current.

Leave the store training spreadsheets behind.

Sales assistants, food counter staff, stock colleagues and store managers need different training. Set what each role needs and keep the records with the person.

Managing it manually

  • A different spreadsheet in every store
  • Refreshers missed when nobody counts
  • Inductions recorded after the first shift
  • Certificates in a back-office folder

With SkillProof

  • Use the editable example roles and requirements, then change them to match your stores.
  • Give each new starter their induction and age-restricted sales training on day one.
  • Keep food hygiene, allergen and first aid certificates with each colleague.
  • Use reminders and the matrix to keep yearly refreshers on track in every store.

Training around each store

Give every new starter the same induction.

Build your store induction and Challenge 25 briefing as internal Learning, assign them by role, and see who has finished in every store. Certificates land on the colleague's record.

A fictional new starter completes an internal induction course, passes its assessment and receives a certificate.

Area review, without the scramble.

Review training across stores, then export a permission-controlled report or an Audit Pack of the selected records and evidence for an area review.

Fewer store spreadsheets. Fewer missed refreshers.

Start with training records and the matrix. Add stores, manager access and your own courses as you grow.

The problem

A spreadsheet per store cannot show who has missed a refresher.

With SkillProof

See status against each role's requirements and open the record behind any cell.

Where SkillProof fits

SkillProof works alongside your rota, till and HR systems. It keeps colleague training and certificate records organised. It is not an age verification tool and does not decide what your stores require.

Questions from retail teams

Straight answers about records, reminders, evidence and where SkillProof fits.

Still tracking training in a spreadsheet?

Send us your training matrix and we will show what reminders could be automated.

Can we remind colleagues about age-restricted sales refreshers?

Yes. The starter setup includes an age-restricted sales item on a 12-month refresher, covering Challenge 25 and the products your store sells. Reminders go to the colleague, and their manager can see who is due.

Can we deliver our own training?

Yes. Build your store induction or Challenge 25 briefing as internal Learning, assign it by role and store, and see who has completed it in the matrix.

Is there a ready-made retail setup?

Yes. The editable retail starter setup adds example roles such as sales assistant, food counter assistant, stock colleague, supervisor and store manager, with example training items, renewal periods and role requirements. It is a starting point you change to fit your business, not a list of legal, client or insurer requirements.

Can we see training across several stores?

Yes. Organise colleagues by store and give store managers access to their own team, while area and HR managers review the matrix across every store.

Does SkillProof track personal licences?

Yes. Record a personal licence holder's licence details and evidence against their record. Your licensing authority holds the official record.

Which plan would we need?

Features vary by plan. Training records, the Training Matrix, evidence and reminders are the core of every plan; sites, manager access, Sessions and Audit Packs depend on the plan you choose. Compare the current plans on the pricing page, or start a 14-day trial to try the full setup.
