HR software for education & training providers
Safeguarding evidence, staff DBS, tutor cover - the people admin behind teaching, kept inspection-tidy all year.
CoDash keeps a training provider's staff records inspection-ready: DBS levels with renewal chasing, safeguarding policies acknowledged with evidence, mandatory training auto-enrolled and renewed, cover visibility on the team calendar, and clean records behind every starter and leaver.
DBS across every role
Levels, certificate numbers and renewal dates per person with reminders before expiry - tutors, assessors and office staff on one register that answers the inspection question in one screen.
Safeguarding with a paper trail
Publish the safeguarding policy with required acknowledgement, auto-enrol mandatory training with renewal periods, and show the evidence view when asked - who's read it, who's trained, who's outstanding.
Cover you can see
The team calendar shows who's off and who's around before term-time leave gets approved; coverage guardrails keep the timetable deliverable.
Tutors on mixed contracts
Sessional, part-time and salaried staff each carry their own working pattern and pro-rata allowance - no spreadsheet on the side for the awkward cases.
What we deliberately don't do
Student records, enrolments and course delivery live in your MIS. CoDash is the staff side - the employment records and registers behind the teaching.

Common questions
Can we show DBS status for an inspection?
Yes - the register shows level, certificate number and renewal date for everyone on one screen, and renewals are chased automatically before they lapse.
How is safeguarding training evidenced?
Mandatory courses auto-enrol staff and renew on your schedule; completions and certificates sit in a register with the acknowledgement evidence beside them.
Does it manage student data?
No - learners belong in your MIS. CoDash deliberately holds staff records only, which also keeps your GDPR surface smaller.
Can sessional tutors book leave fairly?
Yes - individual working patterns mean a two-day-a-week tutor's allowance pro-rates automatically and non-working days never burn leave.
