The Rascal Training Center and the Training Finder offer tools to help Department Administrators (DAs) ensure that members of their departments take required trainings. This training will walk through 6 key functions, from DA access to the Training Center to pertinent Rascal reports and modules, that will enable DAs to assign and track completion of trainings relevant to members of their departments.
First, familiarize yourself with the Rascal home page
What is the Rascal Training Center?
How can DAs get access to administrative functions in the Rascal Training Center?
The second way to request DA access: Chair/Dean can email rascal@columbia.edu a request that includes the DA's name, UNI, and the same information as required in the authorization request form (see above). There is no limit to the number of DA-access requests per email.
How can DAs determine which trainings to assign to department members?
How can DAs assign courses in the Rascal Training Center to members of their department(s)?
DAs can also Batch Upload Assign Courses for up to 500 UNIs at a time. Click on "Batch Upload Assign Courses" in the Training Center (see below).
Then, download a copy of the CSV file (see right) to input the UNIs and Rascal Course number(s). Finally, upload the completed CSV file. The assigned course(s) will appear in individuals' My Training To-Do Lists in Rascal.
