Giving Credit for External Training

To keep track of training that takes place outside Schoox, you can create credits and set them as "uploadable". The users of your academy can then claim that they have acquired certain credits outside Schoox and provide proof of certification. 

How to set up Credits 

To set up your credits, you will need to first create Credit Types and then connect these types to your Credit Rules. You can read more on the process here: What are credits and how can I use them in my Academy?

Make sure to set your Credit Type as Uploadable if you want the users to upload their external certificates! 

What the end-user sees

Employees and trainees can claim that they have acquired certain credits (from the existing academy credit types) from external training in their personal portfolio. To do so, they need to navigate to the Credits tab under their personal profile

4. Provide the name of the training

5. Upload a document of certification by selecting the "Upload" button. (optionally).

6. Save
