Redemption codes are created from training credit accounts. Only one code per training credit account can be created and shared with end users.

3. Select Confirm to continue the approval.

4. Once approved, the request will change to an approved status (under the approved filter) and training credits will be deducted from the overall balance.

Deny redemption

To deny a redemption, select the pending redemption and select Deny.

2. Confirm the denial

3. Once denied, the request will change to a denied status (under the denied filter) and training credits will not be deducted from the overall balance.

4. The user will then receive an email notification that their request was denied.

How can I see what courses my team members are registering for?

Training credit administrators are informed of users requesting training in two ways; UI and email.

UI

From the UI, admins have a default view showing which requests are still pending approval (should the redemption code require manual approval). These requests can be selected for approval or decline.

Approve or decline courses by ticking the box beside the course and selecting the appropriate button. The system will automatically calculate the total amount of credits to be used.

End users are sent an email once the admin approves the course. The email will be in the following format:

Hello ______, Your request to redeem __ training credits for ______ has been approved.

Historical request information can be accessed through the dropdown in the request panel. This allows admins to see previous requests that were approved or denied by admins, or cancelled by end users.

Email

Administrators are also informed of end-user requests via email. An email will be sent to all the administrators linking them back to the portal to approve or decline the course.

Can I invalidate a redemption code and generate a new one?

Redemption codes cannot be invalidated/regenerated by the user. We recommend that you use the 'manually approve' redemption option if you are concerned your code may be compromised.

When do my training credits expire?

Training credits expire one year after they are purchased. The expiration date can be viewed in the admin screen:

What type of reports can I generate? Can I view progress / completions status of the training in a dashboard?

This functionality is not currently available.

Can I send reminder emails when a person / team is not active?

This functionality is not currently available.

How do I get updated when a new course is available from Atlassian University?
