    Claim Credit from Your Employer

    How to Claim Credit            What To Do if Credit Is Not Found


     

    Quick Guide - How to Claim Credit from Employer


     

     

    More Detail


    • An employer can purchase $15 credit and assign it to an employee by name, to pay for the employee's online training or test.
    • To "claim" the credit, the name on your account must match the name entered by your employer.  If they also entered your date of birth, that must match your account, too.
    • You need to select the right employer name and type in the correct supervisor name to add the assigned credit to your account.
    • When the credit is found, you need to "Accept" to add the credit to your account
      • When you accept the credit, that authorizes your employer to view your training progress and test results.
      • You can then use the $15 credit to purchase Online Training, or to take the certification test online for if you completed DVD training a GI-BMP remote (Zoom) class.
    • If your credit is not found, see the next section for troubleshooting.

    Quick Guide - Credit Not Found


     

     

    More Detail


    If your credit is not found, check that...

    • You selected the correct employer name - there may be several similar names in the list
    • Your supervisor's name is spelled right
    • Your account has your correct full name and date of birth
      • The account name shows at the top of the My Training Screen
      • To edit your name or date of birth go to "Account" on the dashboard; make the correction, then click "Update"

    After making any changes needed, click the "Lookup" button to try again.

    If the credit still is not found, check with your employer to be sure you have the correct employer and supervisor name.

    They can also check their record under "For Employers" - "Employee Training" to see...

    • Is there a record for you with "Assigned" status?
    • Do they have your correct full name?
    • If they used date of birth, is it correct?

    If these steps do not solve the problem, please contact Customer Support for help.
