At a glance

SkillProof in brief

SkillProof is staff training matrix software for UK organisations that connects staff roles, training requirements, dates and supporting evidence.

Who it is for

  • HR, training and compliance teams
  • Managers responsible for staff records
  • Multi-site organisations replacing spreadsheets

What it tracks

  • Required training by role
  • Complete, due-soon, overdue and missing-evidence status
  • The Learning, Session or external training record and evidence behind each status

Scope and boundaries

  • It is not an accredited training provider, an included course marketplace or a universal content-led LMS.
  • It does not decide which training is required
  • It does not guarantee compliance

Why organisations replace spreadsheets

The live matrix updates from connected staff and training records, so teams do not have to reconcile separate sheets, folders and inboxes.

Training and LMS context

SkillProof includes a governed LMS for creating, assigning, completing and reviewing internal learning alongside workforce compliance records. Organisations can also retain completions, evidence and renewal dates from external training providers and learning systems. It is not an accredited training provider, an included course marketplace or a universal content-led LMS.

Evidence linked to records

Keep proof attached to the record it supports instead of searching folders.

Export and follow-up

Export the filtered view or selected staff to CSV, then use automated reminders to keep due and overdue work moving.

Review product scope and full workflow detail

What this workflow covers

A useful Training Matrix is an operational control view, not just a coloured report. SkillProof calculates current status from staff, role requirements, governed Learning, Session outcomes, reviewed external completions, dates and evidence held in the workspace. Permitted users can inspect the underlying record and next action; the organisation still defines the requirements and decides whether the evidence is sufficient.

Can you trust what each matrix cell means?

  • How many copies look current?

    People join, leave and change roles while certificates arrive elsewhere, so a copied matrix becomes stale quickly.

  • Is it overdue or missing proof?

    A single colour can hide whether training has expired, evidence is absent or a submission still needs review.

  • What changed with the person's role?

    Manual rows can preserve old requirements or miss new ones after a move, promotion or site change.

Turn the matrix into a review-and-action workspace

  • Build from current people and roles

    Connect matrix requirements to maintained staff, role, site and department records.

  • Keep the reason behind each status

    Use dates, evidence requirements and review outcomes to distinguish the exception that needs attention.

  • Resolve the exception in context

    Open the related record, inspect proof and direct the next action without abandoning the matrix view.

Questions about Training Matrix Software

The key points teams usually need before choosing this workflow.

What should staff training matrix software do?

Staff training matrix software should connect people, roles, training requirements, completion and renewal dates, evidence status and follow-up. It should show the current position without asking managers to reconcile separate spreadsheets and folders.

What should a training matrix system include?

A useful training matrix system should connect people, roles, requirements, completion and renewal dates, evidence status and clear follow-up actions. It should also let managers filter the view they are responsible for and export a current record.

Can SkillProof replace a spreadsheet training matrix?

Yes. You can import existing staff and training data, then use connected roles, records and evidence to generate the matrix. The source data still needs clear ownership and review.

Is SkillProof a learning management system (LMS)?

SkillProof includes a governed LMS for creating, assigning, completing and reviewing internal learning alongside workforce compliance records. Organisations can also retain completions, evidence and renewal dates from external training providers and learning systems. It is not an accredited training provider, an included course marketplace or a universal content-led LMS.
