AppyTraining by AppyShift
Training your team finishes on their phone, and you can see who did.
Assign a ready-made course or a quick quiz, see who has finished, and let reminders do the chasing. Your team takes it on their phone, and a certificate is saved when they pass. Build your own interactive lessons too, and give the team a two-minute quick check when they sign in.

At a glance
Everything AppyTraining does
Quick quizzes
A few questions with a passing score, as a step in onboarding or assigned on their own. See each attempt and its score.
Assign to the right people
One person, everyone, or a department, position or location, with a due date. Review who gets it before you confirm.
Renewals
Training that has to be retaken is assigned again before it expires, with the course's latest version.
Reminders that do the chasing
Employees hear in the app when training is assigned, due within 7 days and overdue. Never by text.
Progress at a glance
Who has started, finished or fallen behind, and a training matrix of who is current on each course. Download either as CSV or Excel.
Certificates
A completion certificate with your logo for every course passed in AppyShift, with a code your managers can check when someone shows it.
Training done elsewhere
Record a class someone took somewhere else, with a proof file, or import a whole spreadsheet. You check every row before it saves.
On their phone
My training shows what's due first, opens each lesson in the app, and keeps their own training record and certificates.
Open to anyone, if you like
Let employees start a course from Browse courses, without being assigned it.
Was this helpful?
After a course, employees say whether it helped and can leave a comment. You see the share and the comments, never their names.
Build your own courses
Text, video, PDFs and images, and interactive lessons: flip cards, image hotspots, matching, sorting, branching scenarios, decisions, fill in the blanks, a design canvas and GIF walkthroughs.
PDFs to fill and sign
Turn a PDF into a lesson employees fill in and sign by hand, with a signing record, or keep it to read and download.
Optional AI
Draft lessons and a quiz from your notes, start from a template, turn a lesson into an interactive one, or make a Spanish copy. Uses AI credits, and nothing is published until you check it.
Two-minute quick checks
One to five questions with pictures or GIFs and instant feedback. Employees are invited once a day when they sign in, never in the way of clocking in.
Learning missions
Turn a lesson into levels employees clear one at a time.
Learning paths
Courses in order, with a choice of courses at a step. The next one is assigned when the last is passed.
Automatic assignments
New hires and current employees in a department, position or location get a course or path on their own, due from their start date.
Achievements
Learning points, levels, badges, weekly streaks and team challenges, plus a leaderboard that stays off until you turn it on. Never money or rewards.
Practical sign-offs
A manager watches someone do the task, marks each step and signs off, with notes. A failed try can be done again.
Review before it goes out
Coworkers comment on a draft or a published version, by department, before the team sees it.
Webhooks and chat alerts
Send assignments, completions and certifications to your HR system or automation tool, and overdue training to your Teams or Slack channel.

Ready to assign
24 courses, ready to assign
Browse the library by topic, or start with a collection: Your first week with AppyShift, or Manager essentials. Preview every lesson as your team will see it, add who they should ask, and the course is yours to review and assign.
- Workplace courses and step-by-step courses on using the app
- Interactive practice in every course, and illustrated walkthroughs in the app courses
- General starting points, not legal advice: check them with your employment lawyer first
Assign it, and know who gets it
Choose the course, then the people: by name, department, position, location or everyone. Set a due date, or one a number of days after each person starts, and review who gets it before you confirm.
- Make it renew, so it is assigned again before it expires
- Employees are told in the app, and by push if they allow it
- Add training to an onboarding template so every new hire gets it
Training on the phone they already carry
My training lists what's due first. Each lesson opens in the app, picks up where they left off, and asks them to try what they just learned. When they pass, the certificate is in their training record.
- Due dates and progress on every course
- Practice that gives feedback right away and never counts as a grade
- Their own training record, with certificates to download
See who's done and who's behind
Training progress lists every assignment with its status, due date and lessons done, and finds overdue and expiring training. The training matrix shows each person against each course, so the gaps stand out.
- Open one assignment to see each lesson, quiz score and its history
- Cancel or waive an assignment with a reason on record
- Download the list or the matrix as CSV or Excel
Training they did somewhere else counts too
Record a class someone took before they joined, with a note and a proof file. For many people, fill in the Excel template and upload it: every row is checked and shown before anything is saved.
- Excel or CSV, with the sheet's own row numbers in the preview
- A recorded pass completes an open assignment and its onboarding step
- Only the rows that are ready are imported
Ask them if it helped
When someone finishes a course, the app asks "Was this helpful?" with a yes or no and room for a comment. They can change their answer later. You see how many said yes and what they wrote, without names.
- The helpful share shows on each course card
- Comments help you fix the lesson that confused people
Build your own training
Build lessons people want to finish
Pick a block, type over the example and preview it as an employee, on a computer or a phone. Flip cards, image hotspots, matching, sorting, branching scenarios, decisions and fill in the blanks give people something to do, not just read.
- Start from a template or a few lines of notes, or let optional AI draft lessons and a quiz from your material
- Your logo, colors and fonts, saved as a brand kit
- Every published version is kept, and people keep the version they were assigned
Two minutes, once a day
A quick check is one to five questions, each with a picture or a short GIF if you like. When an employee signs in, the app offers the day's check once, and they can say Later. Each answer explains why, right away.
- Big answer buttons, including yes and no with a thumbs up or down
- Never in the way of signing in or clocking in
- Counts as taking part, not as a graded test
Paths and rules that assign it for you
A learning path puts courses in order, and the next one is assigned when the last is passed. An automatic assignment gives a course or a path to new hires and current employees in a department, position or location, due from their start date.
- See exactly who a rule will assign before you save it
- A rule assigns each person once, and skips people who already passed
- Pause a rule any time; what it assigned stays
Points, badges and streaks for learning
Finishing lessons, quick checks and courses earns learning points, levels and badges, and a weekly streak counts the weeks they learned something. Team challenges show how many people reached the goal, never who didn't.
- Weeks, not days, because shift workers don't work every day
- The leaderboard is off until you turn it on, and anyone can hide from it
- Never money, gift cards or rewards, and separate from recognition points

Questions about AppyTraining
Which plan includes AppyTraining?
AppyTraining is included from the Pro plan up, with all of its features.
Do the ready-made courses cover the training my state requires?
Don't count on it. They are general starting points written by AppyShift, not legal advice. Before you assign one, add your own contacts and policies, check it with your employment lawyer and adapt it to your state and locations. AppyShift doesn't promise a course meets a required training, hours or certification standard.
Do my employees need another app?
No. Training is in the same AppyShift app they use for their schedule and the time clock, on the iPhone app or in any phone's browser. Lessons pick up where they left off.
How do people know they have training to do?
They are told in the app when a course is assigned, again when it is due within 7 days, and when it becomes overdue. Training reminders never go by text. On Pro, overdue training can also post to your Teams or Slack channel.
Can I count training people took somewhere else?
Yes. Record it for one person with a note and a proof file, or fill in the Excel or CSV template for many people. You see every row before anything is saved. A recorded pass counts for their onboarding step and certification, but it doesn't earn learning points.
Will a quick check get in the way of clocking in?
No. Quick checks are on the Pro plan. The invitation shows after someone signs in, at most once a day, and they can choose Later. It never blocks signing in or the time clock.
Are learning points worth anything?
No, and that's on purpose. Learning points, levels and badges are for encouragement only, never money, gift cards or time off, and they are separate from AppyRecognize points. Training recorded from elsewhere earns none.
