Trainings

Tendenci Trainings module allows you to offer certificate programs to users.

How does it work?

For each certification program, a site admin first specifies a set of certification categories with required credits. Then courses can be added and associated with each certification category.

There are 3 types of courses - online, onsite and outside.

A certificate is granted to a user upon completion of all the courses that meet the requirements of the certification. Users can view their progress and download their transcripts.

What are diamond requirements?

Diamond requirements of a certification is set of additional requirements that a user can pursue after completing the certification. There are up to 9 diamonds a user can receive.

How to offer online and onsite courses?

The courses in the trainings work with Tendenci Events module. If you turn on the setting “Use with Trainings” https://yoursitedomain/settings/module/events/#id_usewithtrainings, a course dropdown would show on event add/edit so that you can select a course for the event. When users register the event, they’d have the option to select what certification they’d like to track.
