Training & Qualifications

Track member training records, manage qualifications, and set renewal reminders.


Training records

Training records capture structured training activity for members — not the same as Academy syllabi (which are for flight schools). Training records are available to all organization types.

Go to Admin → Training to see all training records. Go to Admin → Members → [Member name] → Training to see a specific member's records.

Adding a training record

Admins and instructors can add training records from a member's profile:

  1. Go to Admin → Members → [Member name] → Training → Add Record
  2. Select the training type
  3. Enter the date, instructor, and any notes
  4. Save

Qualifications

Qualifications are certifications or endorsements that members hold — for example: private pilot certificate, tow pilot endorsement, glider rating, first aid cert, or club-specific sign-offs.

Go to Admin → Qualifications to manage the qualification types your club tracks.

Adding a qualification type

  1. Go to Admin → Qualifications → Add Qualification
  2. Name it (e.g. "Tow Pilot Endorsement")
  3. Set whether it expires and the expiry period (e.g. 24 months)
  4. Save

Assigning a qualification to a member

Go to Admin → Members → [Member name] → Qualifications → Add Qualification. Select the type, enter the issue date and expiry date (if applicable), and save.


Expiry tracking

Qualifications with expiry dates are tracked automatically. Go to Admin → Qualifications → Expiring Soon to see a list of qualifications expiring in the next 60 days. Members are not automatically notified — you'll need to contact them directly or configure reminders.


The qualifications report

Go to Admin → Reports → Qualifications to see a full matrix: which members hold which qualifications, issue dates, and expiry status. Export to CSV for record-keeping.


Academy (flight school) training

If your organization is a flight school using Canopy Academy, structured syllabus-based training is managed separately. See:
