Summary
In short
- A training attendance record is a record used in KnowTrain that records who attended a training session, when and who delivered it. It is built against ISO 45001 cl.7.2 and forms part of the Worker Competency and Credentials programme.
- Completed at the session. Kept by the trainer.
- The template holds 47 fields across 4 sections, with training completed, authorisations held repeating for each entry.
- Scoring is attendance count, where high is good.
- ISO 45001 is occupational health and safety management systems. The international standard for managing worker health and safety. Certifiable, and the backbone of most of this library.
- It connects to the rest of the library: links Worker, Course.

When to use it
When to use it, and when not to
This record is one step in a larger programme. Using it for work that belongs to a neighbouring template produces records that are hard to report on later.
Use it for
- The event or activity this record covers has occurred, or is about to
- A new record is needed; each one gets its own ID in the form TRN-2026-000
- You are running the Worker Competency and Credentials programme and this is one of its steps
- A linked record needs this one to exist: links worker, course
Not for
- Training Effectiveness Review, which reviews whether training actually changed behaviour, using observation, incident and knowledge check data.
- Anything outside KnowTrain, which belongs in the workspace that owns that process

The agents
What the agents do with it
The form is the easy part. Keeping it current, routing it to the right owner and holding the evidence together is the work that actually slips.
Holds the training attendance record library against your registers, routes each record to its owner, and keeps the evidence trail together.
Coordinates the crew, rolls completion and exceptions into one view, and holds every write for your approval before it touches a record.
This template lives in KnowTrain — training and credentials. Induction, competency, toolbox talks, refreshers and expiry tracking.
