Training & Competence Control for ISO 9001 & AS9100 Manufacturers
Assign training, capture signoffs, verify competence, preserve revision-aware records, and keep Clause 7.2 evidence audit-ready.
Built for manufacturers that need stronger training control, clearer competence visibility, and audit-ready records without spreadsheet tracking.

Training Records Break Down When Competence Lives in Spreadsheets
Training Matrices Go Stale
Spreadsheet-based tracking stops reflecting the real state of training when assignments, revisions, and follow-up change faster than the file.
Signoffs Get Scattered
Employee acknowledgments, trainer checks, and related records split across folders, paper, and inboxes.
Retraining Dates Drift
Recurring requirements get missed when reminders depend on memory or cleanup instead of one visible workflow.
Revision History Gets Lost
Teams struggle to prove which document revision an employee was actually trained to when records are rebuilt by hand.
Competence Is Hard to Prove
Quality, HR, and operations need a cleaner way to show who is trained, verified, effective, and ready for audit sampling.
From Training Requirement to Audit-Ready Record
Assign Training
Set the requirement clearly by role, department, or employee before the work starts drifting.
Capture Employee Signoff
Keep completion records connected to the required item instead of scattered across separate tools.
Verify Completion
Show that the training step was reviewed, not just marked done without follow-through.
Confirm Effectiveness
Support Clause 7.2 expectations with a clearer view of whether competence was actually confirmed.
Preserve Revision-Aware Record
Tie the record to the right revision so the organization can answer audit questions cleanly.
Track Retraining
Keep recurring requirements visible before they become overdue cleanup work.
Everything Needed to Control Training and Competence
Training Assignments
Assign required training by role, department, or employee.
Signoff Lifecycle
Capture employee signoff, trainer verification, and effectiveness confirmation.
Competence Visibility
See who is trained, overdue, missing verification, or ready for audit.
Revision-Aware Records
Preserve the document revision tied to the training record.
Retraining Visibility
Track recurring requirements before they drift.
Audit-Ready Evidence
Keep records structured and ready when an auditor samples a role.
Connected to the Same AuditReady Workflow System
Training & Competence Control is the foundation of AuditReady's quality workflow system. It connects people, training requirements, signoffs, revision-aware records, evidence, and audit-ready visibility.
Corrective Action Control extends the same operating model for ownership, due dates, evidence, verification, and closure, giving manufacturers a clearer way to manage workflow control beyond training alone.
