Training Module Setup: Adding a Category

Purpose

  1. To explain how to add a Category within the Categories Section of the Training Module Setup.
TIP:  Training Categories are like the "big branches" on the training "tree": There are relatively few and are they are high level. Another way to look at Training Categories is like buckets of information: Training Categories are the biggest buckets for organizing training records.

Examples of Training Categories include:
  1. Administration
  2. Aircraft Rescue & Firefighting (ARFF)
  3. Community Risk Reduction
  4. Driver / Operator
  5. EMS
  6. 
Fire Operations 
  7. Fire Prevention
  8. Higher Education Courses
  9. Special Operations
