Some trainers might not work full time and need to accept training before admin can assume they are available. Admins now have the ability to Add a trainer to a schedule, trainer will save as pending and the trainer must login to their portal and accept or decline the training. The benefit of using this feature means you are not ringing/texting trainers and there is an audit trail in CourseCo i.e. trainer accepted on x date at x time.
