You can add training events in Sage HR, which your employees can choose to attend to help with their working skills or personal development.
Logged in as an admin or training administrator, click your name in the top right, then click Settings.
On the settings menu, click Employee data, then click Training events.
Click Add event.
Enter a title.
Enter a description of the event.
If required, you can add an image. Click Select image, then browse to the image, then click Open.
Select a training event category.
📌TIP: You can create a new category if the ones in the list aren't relevant for this event.
Enter the date, start time and an end time.
If required, you can click Add Date to add another date or another time on the same day. For example, the event is one hour in the morning and one hour in the afternoon.
📎NOTE: If you add a training event with a date in the past, this will not be visible for employees and they will not be able to register their attendance for it.
Enter a location.
Enter the capacity for the event.
EXAMPLE: When you select five people, then after the fifth person attends, no one else can select to attend the training event.
📎NOTE: If your training settings allow employees to request tickets for full events, they go on a waiting list in case someone cancels.
If required, select whether you want the training event to require approval from a direct manager.
When done, scroll down to the bottom and click Add.
Select whether everyone can choose to attend this event, or just specific employees. If specific employees, select which ones.
📎NOTE: Employees don't receive an email at this point, but the Training Event does show in their profile in the Training section.
Once done, click Save.
New training events show under Training events. You can filter them by categories or have them show by upcoming events, past events, or all events.
