Employee Training Management Software for ISO9001 & AS9100 Manufacturers

Build a skilled, compliant, and audit‑ready workforce with a training management system designed specifically for manufacturing environments. Our Employee Training Management Software centralizes training requirements, tracks employee competencies, automates alerts, and ensures compliance with ISO9001:2015 and AS9100 training and competency requirements.

This Employee Training Management Software for ISO9001 & AS9100 manufacturers provides a complete, structured, and traceable approach to workforce development. It supports ISO9001:2015 clause 7.2 (Competence) and AS9100 Rev D requirements for training, qualification, and competency verification — ensuring employees are properly trained before performing work that affects quality.

1. Streamline Training & Workforce Development

Managing employee training manually is inefficient and risky. Our system helps you maintain a fully trained workforce while reducing administrative burden and improving audit readiness.

• Track training status, competency, and expiration dates
• Automate alerts for upcoming and overdue training
• Maintain audit‑ready training records
• Support ISO9001 & AS9100 clause 7.2 (Competence)

Training records can also be linked to Document Management Software for revision‑controlled training materials.

2. Software Setup & Organizational Structure

Configure the system to match your company’s training structure and workflow. The software adapts to your existing organizational hierarchy, job roles, and departmental structure.

• Add company branding and training program details
• Manage employees, trainers, job roles, departments, and facilities
• Configure SMTP or email settings for automated alerts
• Integrate seamlessly with your existing QMS processes

3. Training Item Definition

Centralize all training materials and define requirements for each training item. This ensures consistency and traceability across all training programs.

• Create unlimited training items (procedures, policies, work instructions, etc.)
• Link documents, multimedia, or revision‑controlled files
• Define training frequency, test requirements, and expected duration
• Assign training items to specific facilities or work centers

Training items can also be linked to Inspection Control Plans and Contract Review Software for role‑specific training requirements.

4. Training Record Management

Record training events quickly and maintain complete traceability. The system ensures every training event is documented with the required details for audits and customer requirements.

• Create unlimited training records
• Document trainer, trainee(s), date, competency level, and expiration
• Attach certificates, test scores, and supporting documents
• Maintain a complete training history for each employee

5. Automated Training Requirements

Automatically generate training requirements based on job roles, processes, and organizational structure. This ensures employees receive the correct training for their responsibilities.

• Link employees to job titles, work centers, products, and processes
• Generate individualized training requirements automatically
• Support temporary workers and cross‑functional roles

6. Training Item Revision Control

Keep training content current and compliant with revision‑controlled documentation. The system ensures employees are trained to the correct revision of each document.

• Automate obsoleting of old revisions
• Create new training items for new revisions
• Choose whether to expire existing training or require retraining
• Maintain full revision traceability for audits

7. Automation Features

Reduce administrative workload with powerful automation tools. Alerts ensure training stays current and prevent expired training from affecting production.

• Email alerts for expired and upcoming training (30/60 days)
• Automatic updates to training records and calendars
• Manual alerts for supervisors and department leads

8. Simple Navigation & User Experience

Designed for ease of use, even in fast‑paced manufacturing environments. Supervisors and employees can quickly access training requirements and status.

• Single‑click access to employee requirements and training status
• View expired, due, and upcoming training instantly
• Calendar view for planning and scheduling

9. Open‑Source, Fully Customizable, and Built on Microsoft Access

Our Employee Training Management Software is delivered as an open‑source Microsoft Access application, giving your organization full control and complete customization capability. You receive the actual Access database file — including all forms, tables, queries, and VBA modules — allowing you to tailor the system to your exact ISO9001 or AS9100 training processes, documentation requirements, and competency workflows.

You can deploy the software using:

• Access back‑end (ACCDB) — ideal for single‑user or light‑use environments
• SQL Server Express back‑end — highly recommended for multi‑user manufacturing environments

This hybrid architecture allows you to start quickly with Access and scale seamlessly to SQL Server Express or full SQL Server as your training program grows.

Because the system is open‑source and built on Microsoft Access, you can:

• Modify forms, reports, and workflows
• Add fields, tables, and custom logic
• Integrate with your existing QMS modules
• Extend the system to match your internal training processes
• Maintain full ownership of your data and configuration

This ensures your training program adapts to your unique manufacturing processes, audit requirements, and compliance needs — not the other way around.
