Mobile App Journeyman Guide

The TradeSchool Mobile App allows Journeymen to complete apprentice-related tasks and manage continuing education directly from their mobile device.

Using the app, Journeymen can:

• Complete apprentice evaluations
• Review and approve apprentice time cards
• Track continuing education classes
• Monitor certifications and expiration dates
• Update contact information
• Receive push notifications for important actions

Important: Completing Evaluations Without a Login

Journeymen who normally log in through Web Services on a browser can instead log in directly through the TradeSchool mobile app.

Journeymen who typically complete evaluations by clicking a link in an email do not need a login to complete evaluations.

If the TradeSchool app is installed on the phone, selecting the evaluation link from the email will automatically open the evaluation in the mobile app. The evaluation will appear in a mobile-friendly format, allowing it to be completed without logging in.

Logging In

To log in to the mobile app:

1. Open the TradeSchool Mobile App.
2. In the Select School field, search for and select the appropriate training center.
3. Enter the email address and password associated with the account.
4. Tap Login.

If the password has been forgotten, select Forgot Password and follow the prompts to reset it.

Some devices may allow login using saved credentials or Face ID for faster access.

Dashboard Overview

After logging in, users will land on the Dashboard.

The dashboard provides quick access to key information and tasks, including:

• Pending apprentice evaluations
• Apprentice time card approvals
• Continuing education classes
• Certifications
• Contact information

This page serves as the primary overview of items requiring attention.

Reviewing Time Cards and Completing Apprentice Evaluations

Journeymen may be asked to complete evaluations for apprentices. As part of the evaluation process, the apprentice’s submitted time card will also be reviewed.

To complete an evaluation:

1. Open the pending evaluation from the dashboard.

2. Review the apprentice’s submitted time card and reported hours.

3. Selecting the monthly total will display a breakdown of hours by work category.

4. Complete the required evaluation fields.

Depending on the training center configuration, evaluations may appear in one of two formats:

• Comment-based evaluation

• Questionnaire-style evaluation

Once the evaluation and time card review are complete, two actions are available:

Approve
Approving confirms that the reported hours are accurate and submits the evaluation to the training center for review.

Reject
If corrections are needed, select Reject and include comments explaining the issue. The apprentice will then need to correct the time card and resubmit it.

Some evaluations may include deadlines, and reminders may be sent through push notifications.

The Continuing Education section allows Journeymen to:

• View enrolled classes
• Track completed CE hours
