Validating checklist components

You can validate a checklist component for a direct report if the checklist component was defined to allow managers to validate it.

If the checklist component definition requires you to have the skill or proficiency that you are validating, you will not be allowed to validate the competency or skill if you do not have it or it has expired. To find out whether you can validate a checklist component, open the checklist component and check the Validation section.

You will see all your direct reports' checklist components, whether or not you can validate them.

You can also access this form in Learning > Enrollment > Development Plans > Checklists or Team > Profile.

  1. Select Learning.
  2. Click the Checklists tab.
  3. Open the checklist component.

    If you do not need to verify the checklist component or complete criteria, select the component then click Validate.

  4. If the checklist component includes criteria, complete the criteria by selecting them (or verify that the employee has completed them), then click Validate.

    You can validate a checklist component without completing the criteria. If you do, the criteria will get completed automatically.

  5. Specify this information:
    Validated

    Specify the date that you validated the skill or competency for the resource.

    Method

    Select the validation method that you used to validate the skill or competency.

    The preferred validation method is the default value.

  6. Click OK.

    If the status was Awaiting Validation, the new status is Complete.

    If the status was Awaiting Acknowledgment and Validation, the new status is Awaiting Acknowledgment.
