Tracking competencies shouldn’t mean managing spreadsheets or chasing evaluation forms.

In this short walkthrough, Patrick Kmorekantz demonstrates how apprenticeship programs can track competencies directly inside WorkHands. The platform allows coordinators to customize how evaluations are structured, who completes them, and how progress is reviewed — all while keeping supervisors accountable and programs audit-ready.

WorkHands lets you configure competency tracking to match your program’s workflow, including:

  1. Custom competency structures and evaluation templates

  2. Flexible assessment types (yes/no or skill levels)

  3. Supervisor and reviewer approval workflows

  4. Automated evaluation scheduling and reminders

  5. Real-time progress tracking for apprentices

Once your competency template is defined, WorkHands automatically generates evaluations and tracks completion — giving coordinators clear visibility into apprentice progress without manual administration.

The result is a simpler way to manage competency-based apprenticeship programs while maintaining accurate, compliant records.
