The Training Records System lists all the Courses (or Qualifications) that are available.
It is possible to use the Calendar to show the dates that courses are available and to mark planned attendance such that other Governors know who is going. When the Event is created (Calendar/New Event) then if Training Records are being used there is a 'drop down' where the date and time can be linked to a course (for logistical reasons)
When this is added to the event and the event is subsequently viewed there is a direct link to the course (to see the content and course details).
You can mark that you intend to attend the session on the Calendar (using the Attendance button) and also see who else is attending (using the Attendance button).
NOTE: This DOES NOT automatically update your Training Record (as you may want to add a certificate).
Clicking the link takes you to that course to see the details.
You can mark your attendance and add your training certificate (or other document) in the Training Records area
The Calendar Event is there to manage the date/time and who is going - logistics
The Training Records area is there to manage the actual Training Record
