Online enrolments, assessments and digital certificates

The Red Cross training management system is 100% paperless. Not only does this support our environment, it also simplifies the process and makes the distribution of information, including certificates, much faster.

We recognise that some students will need support using the system, please let us know if you do.

Students will complete an online assessment during the training course or, if this is not possible, they will need to complete the online assessment within 48 hours after training has completed.

First Aid skills assessment

This is completed digitally in-class by the individual by logging in to the Student Portal. Students use their own phone, tablet or laptop.

Certificates

Students receive their certificates via their Learner Portal on completion of their course and an emailed copy.

Invoicing

An invoice will be issued after course delivery either on a course-by-course basis, or monthly as per agreement.

Client Training Management Portal

Clients can request a secure portal to manage training with Red Cross.

Clients have greater control over enrolling employees into private and public courses by accessing the portal.

Past and upcoming bookings made with Red Cross are visible in the portal.

Authorised users can run and download reports on bookings, attendance, finance, contacts, completions, certificates and much more. Reports can be generated from the client portal or automated to send regular reports.

The portal allows instant updates on employee contacts, thus minimises going through indirect channel, e.g., sending an email or calling our hotline

Employees can be directly enrolled onto public courses or onto pre-arranged private group training sessions.

Employee training progress and issued certificates can be accessed.

Employee records are stored in their individual profiles, saving time in collecting data and contact information each time employees are rebooked.
