One place for every training record

BIS Training Record Management System is online software for employers to store, track and report on employee and contractor training. Online courses, classroom sessions and past certificates sit in one database, with expiry reminders and gap reports, so you can replace paper files and spreadsheets with electronic training records.

  • Online courses

    Completions from the BIS LMS save to each worker's record automatically.

  • Classroom and on-site training

    Log instructor-led and on-site training next to online courses.

  • Historical certificates

    Upload past certificates and attach each one to its training record.

  • Expiry reminders

    Workers, supervisors and admins get emails 90, 60 and 30 days before training expires.

  • Gap reports

    See who is missing required training in one click.

  • Bulk upload

    Load thousands of records in minutes with Excel.

Find any record fast

Sort and search every record by name, course, training provider, completion date or expiry date. When someone asks for proof of training, it's already there.

Keep the certificate with the record

Attach a copy of each certificate to its training record. Workers can upload their own, and a supervisor reviews it before it counts.

Gap analysis reporting

Assign training requirements, then run a gap report to see who is falling behind. It lists each person's name, location and the training they still need, and opens in Excel.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a training record management system?

It's software that keeps every employee's and contractor's training records, certificates and expiry dates in one place. Instead of spreadsheets and paper files, you can see who is trained, who is due to renew and who is missing a requirement.

Can we bring in our existing training records?

Yes. Use the Excel upload templates to create user accounts and load thousands of training records at once, and attach a copy of each certificate to its record.

Does it track training that wasn't done in BIS?

Yes. Training done in a classroom or on site is logged next to the courses completed in the BIS learning management system (LMS), and past certificates can be uploaded and attached to their records.

How is a training record system different from an LMS?

A learning management system (LMS) delivers online courses. A training record system keeps the record of every completion, wherever the training happened: courses in the BIS LMS, classroom and on-site sessions, and certificates from other providers. It also tracks when each one expires and who is missing required training.

When do expiry reminders go out?

Emails go to the worker, their supervisor and your admins 90, 60 and 30 days before training expires.

Can workers see their certificates on their phone?

Yes. With the BIS Safety App, workers can see their training tickets and completed courses, take online courses, and download and store their certificates on a smartphone or tablet.
