Member Training Portal Upgrade

In an effort to make the Member Training Portal clearer and more intuitive, an improved User Interface (UI) has been released.

To learn more about what has changed, please click here https://lsv.com.au/wp-content/uploads/Circular-120.11.23-Release-of-Member-Training-Portal-Updates-2.pdf

When completing the E-Learning for Skills Maintenance, please ensure you complete all awards that are applicable to you. LSV updated this function which prevents members from doing the e-learning for awards they do not hold.

Follow the steps below to complete this process:

Enrol into course by clicking “Yellow Enrol Button”
Lunch into the e-learning by clicking “Blue Launch Button”
Once the E-learning is complete you will see a “Green Completed Button”

For more information and guides on how to complete the above steps, please read our skills maintenance page https://www.woolamaibeach.org.au/skills-maintenance
