Step by Step

Map roles to requirements

Define which training is required, recommended, or optional for each job role in the Learning Matrix. Role mappings update automatically when employees change positions or new requirements are added.

Monitor status in real time

The matrix updates continuously as learners complete training. Green means complete, yellow means due soon, and red means overdue or missing. No report needs to be run to see current compliance status.

Export for audits instantly

Filter to any slice of the organization and export the matrix in audit-ready format. Regulators, compliance officers, and internal audit teams get exactly what they need without L&D staff compiling records manually.

Core Features

Multi-Dimension Filtering

Filter the matrix by department, location, job role, regulation, or certification type to get the exact slice you need. A compliance officer can pull a regulator-specific view in seconds.

Required vs. Recommended Mapping

Map training as required, recommended, or optional for each role. The matrix respects these designations so reports separate mandatory compliance gaps from optional development gaps.

At-a-Glance Status Grid

A color-coded grid maps every person against every required program. Green for complete, yellow for due soon, red for overdue or missing. Compliance status is visible without running a report.

Audit-Ready Export

Export the matrix or filtered views at any time for auditors, regulators, or internal compliance teams. Data includes completion dates, scores, and individual employee records formatted for review.

Gap Identification Before Risk

Identify training gaps before they become compliance risks. The matrix highlights who is overdue, who is at risk of lapsing, and which roles have the highest concentration of incomplete requirements.

Rollout Planning View

Use the matrix to plan training rollouts with precision. See which teams or roles need the most attention and sequence your program delivery to close gaps efficiently across the organization.

Use Cases by Role

Proving to a regulator that the entire workforce is trained on a specific requirement

Filter the matrix by the regulation in question and export. The output shows every employee's status against that requirement with completion dates attached. The entire exercise takes under a minute.

Outcome: Audit evidence produced in seconds

Identifying which departments have the most compliance risk before the end of the quarter

The matrix view filtered by department and date range shows instantly which teams have the highest proportion of overdue or at-risk completions. Targeted interventions can be prioritized rather than sending organization-wide reminders.

Outcome: Targeted action before risks become incidents

Ensuring new hires in compliance-heavy roles are fully trained before they are client-facing

The matrix shows at any time whether a new employee in a regulated role has completed all required training. Managers can make informed decisions about when someone is ready to take on full responsibilities.

Outcome: Informed readiness decisions based on live data

Planning a training rollout across five departments after a regulatory change

Use the matrix to identify which employees in each department are affected by the new requirement, which ones have already completed relevant prior training, and which represent the highest priority for the rollout.

Outcome: Efficient rollout with surgical prioritization

The difference between hoping the workforce is trained and knowing it

Most organizations find out about compliance gaps during an audit or after an incident. The Learning Matrix gives L&D leaders, compliance officers, and operations managers the visibility to prevent those moments rather than react to them. It is included with every Trainery subscription because a learning platform without compliance visibility is only useful for delivery, not accountability.

Included with every Trainery subscription at no extra cost

Filterable by role, department, location, and regulation simultaneously

Gaps identified before they become incidents, not after

Color-coded status visible without running a report

Audit export available at any time formatted for regulatory review

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Learning Matrix included with every Trainery plan?

Yes. The Learning Matrix is part of TraineryOPS, which is included with every Trainery subscription at no extra cost. You do not need to upgrade to access it.

Can the matrix distinguish between required and optional training for each role?

Yes. Each training program can be mapped as required, recommended, or optional per role. The matrix respects these designations so compliance reports focus on mandatory gaps rather than mixing them with optional development items.

Can we export the matrix for an auditor or regulator?

Yes. The matrix and any filtered view can be exported at any time in audit-ready formats. Exports include completion dates, assessment scores, and individual employee records so regulators and internal compliance teams have everything they need in one document.

How does the matrix update when employees change roles?

When an employee is assigned a new role in TraineryCORE, the Learning Matrix updates automatically to reflect that role's training requirements. Previously completed courses that satisfy the new role's requirements are carried over and new gaps are immediately visible without any manual reconfiguration.

Can the Learning Matrix be filtered by a specific regulation rather than just a department?

Yes. The matrix can be filtered by regulation, certification type, department, location, and role simultaneously. A compliance officer managing multiple regulatory frameworks can pull a regulation-specific view to see exactly who is compliant and who is not without sifting through unrelated data.

Does the matrix show external learners like partners and customers, or just employees?

By default, the Learning Matrix covers internal employees. Organizations using Trainery's Extended Enterprise Training capability can configure separate matrix views for external audiences such as partners, resellers, or association members with the same color-coded compliance status and filtering capability.

How far in advance does the matrix flag upcoming expiries as yellow?

The alert threshold is configurable per certification or program. Most organizations set the yellow status to trigger 30 to 90 days before a deadline or expiry date. This threshold can be adjusted per regulation or certification type to match specific compliance windows.
