Observation Checklists

The Absorb LMS Observation Checklist closes the gap between online and on-the-job training (OJT). It streamlines the process of verifying that employees have the skills, knowledge and capabilities to get the job done—and tracks it all automatically to ensure your records are always accurate and up to date. The Observation Checklist feature is built to support company and regulatory compliance efforts—and with the addition of the Reviewer role to the LMS, checklist reviews can be completed by a peer, supervisor, manager or independent third party.

Simple, Scalable 
On-The-Job Training Reviews

The Observation Checklist feature takes the work out of tracking and reviewing how well your learners can apply their training to successfully complete the tasks and procedures essential to their role. The workflow is simple: learners indicate when they're ready for their review within the LMS, it's marked as such and added to the reviewer's queue—they just have to log on and record the results. And because "on the job" doesn't always mean "near a computer," checklist reviews can be performed anytime, anywhere on any device.
