Track and assign your team's training - (Team web app)

What the Training page shows

The Training page shows how far each member of your team has got in Training by Scribble, the hands-on courses, tutorials, whiteboard lessons and certifications in the Scribble Maps editor. You can also assign training to members and give it a due date.

Only team owners and admins can open this page. You find it in the team portal sidebar under Members, below Users.

Members know that you can see their progress. Their Training panel in the editor says "Your team admins can see your training progress", with the name of the team.

Read the members table

Each approved member of the team has one row. Pending invites and deactivated members are not listed.

Column What it shows
MemberName, email, team role and seat (Business seat, Basic seat, Viewer seat or No seat).
LevelThe highest certification level the member has earned. Before Silver 1, everyone holds the bronze New User badge.
CertificationsThe badges of every certification they earned, such as Silver 1 or GIS 101. Point at a badge to see its name.
Courses completedHow many courses they finished.
AssignedAssigned training they have not finished yet. A red Overdue tag means a due date has passed.
Last activityThe last day they worked on any training, or Never.

Click the arrow at the end of a row to see that member's training: every course, tutorial and whiteboard lesson they started, finished or were assigned. Each one shows its status (Not started, In progress or Completed), a progress bar, the day it was completed and its due date. Above plan means the member's plan does not include it. They are asked to upgrade before taking it.

Use the Search members box to find a member by name or email. Use the filter to show only one group of members: Has open assignments, Overdue, No training yet or No seat. All members shows everyone again.

Assign training

  1. Tick the members you want. The box at the top of the table ticks every member shown who has a seat.
  2. Click Assign training to selected. To assign to one member, click Assign on their row instead.
  3. Pick what to assign on the tabs:

    • Courses are grouped by certification under Certification levels, GIS Certification and Kit courses. Click a group to open it, or tick the box on the group to pick all of its courses.
    • Tutorials are grouped by task, such as Import & data or Drawing.
    • Whiteboard lessons are short lessons Scribble teaches on a whiteboard.

    Type in the Search courses, tutorials and lessons box to find something by name.

  4. (Optional) Pick a Due date.

  5. Click Assign.

The member sees Assigned, or Due and the date, on the card in their Training panel. While they have assigned courses to finish, the Courses tab opens on the Assigned filter. They start the training themselves from the panel.

Good to know:

  • A seat is needed. Members without a seat on the team cannot be assigned training. Give them a seat on the Users page first.
  • Industry specialty courses need Pro Business. When industry specialty courses open, they can be assigned only when every picked member is on Pro Business.
  • If something needs a higher plan than a member has, the page warns you. The member is asked to upgrade before they can take it.
  • Only courses that are ready are listed. Courses that are coming soon cannot be assigned.
  • Certification levels still open in order. If you assign a Silver 2 course, the member still finishes Silver 1 first.
  • Assigning the same thing again to the same member replaces its due date.

Unassign training

  1. Click the arrow on the member's row.
  2. Click Unassign next to the item, then Unassign again to confirm.

The member keeps any progress they made on it.

Export to CSV

Click Export CSV to download the members shown, with their name, email, role, seat, plan, level, certifications, courses completed, open and overdue assignments, and last activity. The search and filter you set decide which members are in the file.

Audit log

Every course, tutorial or whiteboard lesson you assign or unassign is recorded in the Audit Log as Training assigned or Training unassigned, with the date, who did it, the member and the item.
