Training Matrices & Skills Dashboards
We build training matrices that give businesses a clear, up-to-date picture of their team’s skills, monitored through a simple standalone dashboard. Whether you’re starting from scratch or working from outdated documents or spreadsheets, we build training records that become a practical management tool, helping you plan cover, target development and reduce risk, while keeping you audit-ready all year round.
Why we offer this
Experience shows that training records across the print industry are inconsistent, both between businesses and often within the same company.
While some businesses keep good records, many rely on basic spreadsheets, documents that haven’t been updated in years, or no proper record at all of what each operator has actually been trained to do.
A business may know someone is an experienced printer or operator, but it often has nothing that clearly shows:
- which parts of the machine they are competent on
- what standard they were trained against
- when they were last reviewed
- where further development is needed
That gap creates real risks for health and safety, quality, audits and succession planning. It also makes it much harder to see where the genuine skills gaps are.
Rushing round before audit day to get forms signed just to satisfy the auditor isn’t training. It’s a health and safety ticking time bomb.
What you get
- Training matrices built around your machines, processes and roles
- A standalone dashboard showing who is trained on what, review dates and gaps at a glance
- Records that stay current and are ready to show at an audit
How It Works
A clear process from your first conversation to records that stay audit-ready all year round
1 - We understand your operation
We look at your machines, processes, roles and any existing training records.
2 - We build your matrix
Competencies for each role and machine, and the standard each person is assessed against.
3 - We set up your dashboard
See who is trained on what, when reviews are due and where the skills gaps are.
4 - You utilise the data and update
Use the data to support decisions across your business, and update records as people progress or new starters join.
