Revoke Certification?

We have no experience yet with certifications but we are trying to look ahead to see how we might use certifications in Prime.

I've reviewed the online help information about certifications but it doesn't mention any way to control the certifications beyond how a learner must complete a list of courses associated with the certification.

Is it possible to revoke a certification later for non-academic reasons?

We'd like to use the certification feature of Prime to manage our inspector authorizations and sometimes authorizations are revoked for various reasons. If we can't manually revoke (de-certify) someone, then we can't use Prime to help manage that process.

Thoughts?

Hi Peter,

Currently this feature is not available in Prime. You cannot revoke the certificates once the user gains it. However you have an option to set the Certification Type as "Recurring" and provide the validity for that certification course.

Regards,

Mayank

We'd really like to use Prime to help manage our certifications. Without the ability to base a current certification on more than just training accomplishments, it makes Prime not as useful as it could be. To properly manage our certification programs in Prime, we will need the ability to revoke a certification. Is this something that might be added in a future version of Prime?

Anyone else care to add their thoughts to the need for this feature?
