Frequently Asked Questions

If you are interested in becoming an instructor for us, please contact us on 01206 805359 to discuss your choices or email us on support@protrainings.uk and we can call or contact you back. As an instructor, you can teach classroom courses using our curriculum and will also make commissions off all online courses that your students take.

The logo you upload in "Account Settings" will display on student classroom certificates, so make sure you use a high-quality logo or else it will not print well on the certificate.  You do not have to upload a logo but it is a good sales promotion for you. You cannot add your logo to a regulated certificate.

To publish courses on ProCourses, an instructor must apply to become an instructor for ProTrainings and agree to teach courses and issue certificates according to the ProTrainings curriculum. Learn more about becoming an instructor.

A skill evaluator just has to practically assess the skills for someone who has completed an online course with ProTrainings.  It is a nice extra income for a little work.

  • Charges up to £50 for a 20-30 minute skill evaluation or more if you want but it will restrict the number of leads.
  • Conducts an entire course (written test as well as hands-on evaluation) in person.
  • An evaluation schedule allows you to list specific recurring times that you will be available to perform skill (or RQF) evaluations
  • These will show up on ProCourses so students know what times they are able to just stop by for an evaluation
  • We suggest setting times for several months (at least) in advance so students can plan ahead
  • You may wish to schedule a couple of hours at the end of your scheduled normal classroom courses so you have no other costs
  • Do not let people down they will never come back and they will spread bad news about you
  • This feature can be revoked if you do not honor the schedule you set
  • Certificate credit must be purchased in order to mark students passed in classrooms you teach in order for them to receive certificates
  • Each course may cost a different amount of certificate credit per student
  • An additional cost is required to pass students in a RQF course (be sure to collect this amount when the student comes to the class)
  • You must be an approved, publicly viewable, current instructor in good standing with ProTrainings
  • When you create courses on your company dashboard, be sure to mark them as public
  • You may create recurring classes from the Classroom Centre so you can schedule multiple courses at once
  • When students search your postal code on ProCourses, we will show any upcoming courses you are running and allow students to sign up to help you fill your class

Accessing your free online courses. As an instructor, you will need to complete some free online courses with us. Some are annual, some are three yearly. You will find these in the training section of your dashboard, not the admin section of your dashboard. Data protection is available for you, you just click "begin" and that one has to be renewed every three years, and there is also first aid at work annual refresher available to you, and AED.
