Continuous Professional Development (CPD) plays a vital role in employee growth and skill enhancement. HRLocker's CPD/Training Records feature enables managers to assign CPD to employees. Employees can upload certificates and track their training progress, while managers receive reminders for certificate renewals, ensuring compliance and continuous learning.

Employees can also take initiative by creating and saving their own CPD items. Here’s how to utilize this feature effectively.

  1. Navigate to Office Settings:
    • Go to office settings and Edit.
  2. Enable CPD Creation:
    • Find and enable the option for employees record their own training.
