How to complete training with a managers approval

There are some trainings within Cornerstone that require a managers approval. If there is an approval step to complete the training, you will see in your training record that when you mark the training as complete the status changes to pending completion approval. 

Overview of the process: 

1. The employee is assigned the training in Cornerstone or requests the training in Cornerstone. 
2. The employee then marks the training as complete within their training record. 
   1. If the training requires evidence to be uploaded (such as a certificate of completion) there will be steps outlined in the training description on where to upload these. This will usually be in the Snapshot documents folder. 
3. Emails will automatically be generated to the manager to approve the training within Cornerstone with a direct link to the approval page. 
4. Once the manager approves the training this will be moved to the completed section of the employees training record. 

If the user is not assigned the training yet they will be able to search for the training within their Learning Hub in Cornerstone and searching for the title of the training where they can select 'Request' 

Note: If the employee does not see 'Request' then they are likely to already have the training in their training record and have started this training. 

To access your Snapshot folder and upload evidence, log into Cornerstone, click on My Documents. 

Open the folder that relates to the training and click on 'Add file'. 

Managers approval

If the manager wants to check if there are any pending approvals, they can log into Cornerstone if there are any approvals pending it will show under Your inbox in Approve training. 

Or click here to take you to your pending approvals. 

You will then see your pending approvals; this will show the details of the approval where you can approve or deny the completion request. 

If you are required to sight evidence to approve the training, click on the employee's name, this will take you to their training record. In the menu ribbon, click on Snapshot. 

Go into the users Documents and select the corresponding folder for the evidence you wish to sight. 

Once you have seen the evidence you can go back to the approvals page and approve the completion.
