  2. Educational Registration Software: AMS has the capability to enter educational events that were being held within organizations. The "Events" module of the system allows users to register employees and non-employees in live educational events. Each live event that an employee completes is automatically placed in their education record.

  3. Professional Licensure and Certification Tracking: AMS has the ability to track licenses and certifications. The "TrackIt" module allows users to track any renewable or annual requirements (i.e. nursing licenses, CPR certifications and TB skin tests) ; print reports of individuals that have required renewals sorted by month and year ; and print reports that allow the system administrator to see when everyone with that requirement is due for renewal These are automatically added to the employee's education record, which allows the system administrator to print out an employee's record during a survey (JCAHO).

  4. Education Record-Keeping System: The AMS can run reports regarding the progress of those registered in careLearning.com courses. It also has other educational tracking abilities including:

  • Reports that could be sorted by individual, department, job category or renewal date (i.e. birth date or anniversary date)

  • Reports that list only the courses an employee has not completed

  • Reports that show only careLearning.com courses

  • Reports that include the courses registered through the "Events" module and information from the "TrackIt" module, as well as careLearning.com courses

The AMS is a time-saving tool for hospitals and health systems across the country. One of the greatest benefits of this system is that is comes free of charge with the Health and Safety Compliance series subscription.
