Add Employee Competence Records (Training Courses)

The Competence Management process is used to track and manage the competence requirements of your organisation and help identify any gaps or qualifications that need to be updated.
These competence requirements will fulfil the skills or crafts that may be necessary for employees to fulfil their role within the company.

This module will also enable you to keep track of qualification status and expiry.
