eCASE Audit Training Overview

The eCASE Audit Training module allows customers to assign, track, and report employee trainings throughout the year. Training Managers and/or Coordinators can add courses to the Course Catalog and assign them to users. When a user completes a training, they submit to the Training Manager and/or Coordinator for approval.  

The general workflow for eCASE Training is as follows:

  1. Create a course.

  2. Assign the course to a user.  

  3. The user completes the assigned course(s).  

  4. Authorized users review the user submitted training information, and approve or decline the course activity. If the course activity was declined, the user is prompted to complete the course again.

Training Interface

When you first open eCASE Audit Training, the module appears as shown below:

There are a few key areas to note. The (A) Launch Pad with navigation options, the (B) search bar, and the (C) dashboard that displays relevant course status information.
