Create and Maintain Jobs
A job identifies the learning requirements of a certain role or a position in your organization.
Below are the guidelines for Jobs
- The minimum permission to create, manage or delete a job or skillset is LMS admin at the company or division level.
- The learning requirements of Jobs are defined using skillsets and training items.
- Place training items in skillsets, which in turn are placed in jobs, or place training items directly in the job.
Using skillsets as direct components of a job is preferable to using training items directly within a job.
- This is also used to create a grouping of individuals in a similar role which MOC/ACT tasks can be assigned to.
- When searching for jobs, skillsets or training items you may use % as a wildcard.
How to Create a Job
Its important to follow the naming conventions for jobs in the division where you are creating the job.
- Select Curriculum > Jobs
- Select New.
- Enter the job Title and Job Code.
- Enter the optional fields of Description, Division Key Words and Notes if desired.
- If no division is selected the job is added to the default company and default division of the person creating the job.
- Select Save.
How to Add Skillsets or Training Items to a Job
Both skillsets and training Items can be added to a job. Skillsets and training items that are grouped in a job are called job components.

Select either the Division where you want to search (if you are at company level), or click Company Library or Public Library to search the libraries.
