Training Hours Report

This report displays training hours completed by users. The report displays training hours for active and inactive training items. The report can summarize the data by user, provider, or training type. There is also an option to not summarize the report data.

Note: For sessions, training hours are calculated based on the parts completed with breaks excluded.

Note: Training is recorded in hours. For example, 0.23 is 13 minutes, 0.5 is 30 minutes, etc. The actual calculation to get the minutes is done by multiplying the training hours by 60 (e.g., 0.23 training hours multiplied by 60 is 13.8 minutes). This formula may be helpful when the report is exported to Excel.

To access the Training Hours report, go to Reports > Standard Reports. From the Training tab, click the Training Hours link.

  • Employee - This column displays the name of the user.
  • User ID - This column displays the user ID of the user.

  • For example, the Training Hours for an online course may be set to 0.25 hours (15 minutes). However, if a user completes the online course quickly, they may only spend 0.2 hours (12 minutes) in the online course. In this example Training Hours is recorded as 0.25, and the Time in Training is set to 0.2.

  • Training Hours - When creating training, you are able to specify the Training Hours for the training. Training hours are definable via Course Catalog, Manage Events and Sessions, Course Publisher, or Video Administration. This indicates the amount of time that the training should take to complete. This is the value that is displayed as Training Hours in the report.
