What this workflow covers

SkillProof is training record management software for the organisation-wide process behind workforce training records. Define reusable training items, apply requirements by role, record completions and renewal dates, review evidence, follow up gaps and report on the current position. The Training Matrix shows the live overview; each staff profile keeps the individual history. SkillProof manages records from any provider, but it does not create or deliver courses.

Plain-English answer

SkillProof in brief

SkillProof is a training records management system for UK organisations that need current workforce history, renewal dates, evidence and reports.

Who it is for

  • HR, training and compliance teams
  • Managers responsible for staff records
  • Organisations replacing record spreadsheets

What it tracks

  • Training history and completion dates
  • Renewals, overdue items and missing evidence
  • Role requirements and manager reports

What it does not do

  • It does not deliver training courses
  • It does not decide which training applies
  • It does not certify regulatory compliance

Why organisations replace spreadsheets

Training history, dates, role requirements and evidence stay connected to each person instead of being reconciled across sheets, emails and folders.

How it differs from an LMS

An LMS delivers learning content. SkillProof records completions, renewal dates and evidence from the providers and learning systems a team already uses.

The position has to be pieced together

  • Scattered records
  • Manual renewal lists
  • Evidence in email
  • Slow reporting

With SkillProof

One clear view of the record and follow-up

  • Connected records
  • Visible renewals
  • Linked evidence
  • Faster review

See the current position before opening another spreadsheet

Use current records to see what is complete, due, overdue or missing, then open the record that needs attention.

  1. Use the People Directory to create or import staff records.

  2. Define reusable items and evidence expectations in the Training Library.

  3. Apply the relevant items through Training by role.

  4. Record completion dates, renewal dates and provider information.

Review the full problem-to-workflow detail

Where workforce training records lose consistency

  • Teams record the same training differently

    Different names, dates and evidence rules make organisation-wide reports difficult to trust.

  • Role requirements drift from the staff record

    A starter or role change can leave someone with old requirements, missing requirements or no clear owner.

  • Completion, evidence and follow-up sit apart

    A date is recorded in one place while the certificate, review outcome or next action remains elsewhere.

  • Reports are rebuilt instead of reviewed

    Managers spend time reconciling spreadsheets and folders before they can discuss the actual gaps.

One repeatable training-record process

  • Standardise the training library

    Define the training items, renewal periods and evidence expectations your organisation uses.

  • Apply requirements by role

    Connect the relevant requirements to the people, roles, sites and departments that need them.

  • Record completions and renewals

    Keep the completion date, renewal date, provider reference and other required details on the staff record.

  • Collect and review evidence

    Request or upload supporting files, then record whether the evidence has been accepted or still needs attention.

  • Follow up and report

    Use due-soon, overdue and missing-evidence actions before exporting the current view for review.

Questions about Training Records Management

Straight answers about the record, workflow and product boundary.

What is training record management software?

Training record management software keeps an organisation's training requirements, completion history, renewal dates, evidence and follow-up in one controlled process. It should make the current record and its gaps easier to review without rebuilding reports from spreadsheets.

Is SkillProof a training records management system?

Yes. SkillProof manages training items, role-based requirements, completion and renewal dates, evidence, manager actions and reports. It is not an LMS and does not deliver courses.

What is the difference between training records management and a staff training record?

Training records management is the organisation-wide method for defining, recording, reviewing and reporting. A staff training record is the individual person's history within that process.

Can SkillProof manage employee training records from different providers?

Yes. You can record internal or external training, dates, provider details, renewals and evidence against the employee's record.

Can existing training record spreadsheets be imported?

Existing staff and training data can be imported. The file still needs consistent people, training items and dates, so the import route depends on the quality and structure of the source data.

Can managers see their team's training records?

Managers can review permitted staff records, team actions and reports based on their access.

Does training record management software guarantee compliance?

No. Software can make requirements, dates, evidence and gaps visible. Your organisation remains responsible for choosing the right requirements, keeping records accurate and deciding what action is sufficient.
