Request Approval of a Development Plan

If your site is configured to utilize collaborative development plans, and if you have made a change to your development plan, you must request your Approval Manager's approval of the change.

Your Approval Manager is assigned to you by your training administrator.

If your Approval Manager accepts the change, the status of the development plan changes to Approved. If your Approval Manager rejects the change, the status changes to Submit for Approval, and you must revert your changes and request approval of the plan again.

To request approval of your development plan

  1. In the Skillport Header, click Learning Plan.
  2. Under the Assigned Learning section, in the Development Plan set, click Submit for Approval.

    The Development Plan Approval Request dialog box displays.

  3. In Note for Approval Manager, enter a comment about the changes that you made to your Development Plan.

    Your Approval Manager sees this note when he takes action on your request.

  4. If available on your site, you can send an email notification of the request to the Approval Manager or to another individual:

    In Send Email to Selected Approval Manager, click the drop down and select a manager from the list.

  5. Click Send.

    The status of your development plan changes to Pending Approval until your Approval Manager approves or denies the changes. While your development plan is in this state, you cannot make changes to it.
