Adding education

When an education record is added to candidate or resource, it includes an education attainment, an education specialization, and an education institution. The education specialization is not required. These components are set up separately by the HR administrator.

Education refers to a formal course of education or training that is taken in an educational institution. High school diploma, university degree, trade school certificate, etc.

Education attainments are displayed in a selection list when a resource or candidate. or their proxy manager or recruiter, adds an education record. If the education is not in the list, they specify the name of the education in the Other field. You can then add all of the "other" education attainments to the education list so that they can be selectable in the future.

Select Administrator > Qualifications > Education.
On the Education tab, click Create, and specify this information:

Effective Date

Education

Specify the name of the education.

Short Description

Specify a short description use in lists. If this field is blank, the education name is the default.

Description

Optionally, specify a description of the education. It can be useful for nonstandard qualifications such as technical or trade certificates. If this field is blank, the short description is the default.

Level Equivalence

Specify the educational level to which qualification is equivalent. This can be used to evaluate a diploma in comparison with other diplomas. The level system must be designed at the organization level. For example, high school = 1, associate degree or trade certificate = 2, undergraduate degree = 3, master's level degree = 4, doctorate level = 5..
Note: If you are using percent fit tolerances in Succession Management, to include tolerances for Education, you must define a Level Equivalence for each Education. See the Infor Succession Management User Guide for more information about percent fit tolerances.
