Training Records

When CQC, Ofsted, the EHO, HSE, or DVSA walk in, you have minutes to prove every person on the floor is trained, signed off, and in date. Pilla keeps a live skills matrix per team with renewal dates, evidence, and sign-off trails so the audit pack is always one tap away. No more scrambling through binders or chasing certificates from people who left six months ago.

Renewal reminders

Catch every renewal before it lapses

Most expired training only gets noticed during an inspection. A weekly scan flags anyone within 30 days of expiry so you can book the refresher before the certificate runs out.

Multi-site rollup

Spot the gaps across every site

For groups running 5, 20, or 200 sites, no one has time to inspect each one weekly. A rollup view shows which sites are fully covered and which are short on a critical course before BRC or DVSA notice.

Inspector report

Hand over a clean report on the day

Inspectors ask the same questions every time. Who is on shift, what are they trained on, when did they last refresh, and where is the evidence. One canvas answers all four without you opening a filing cabinet.
