Creating and Managing Training Overview

This section provides instruction for building the basic details for a class.

Class program types includes:

Blended—Blended courses combine the online learning component with either:

a classroom, skills component

or

a Remote Skills Verification (RSV) session to meet knowledge and skills objectives, and provide digital certification to students who successfully complete the cognitive and skills session. See for more information.

Include the Digital Cert Card program type if you want to provide students digital certification at the successful completion of these courses This step is not necessary for the RSV program type.

Note   When you complete building the online portion of the course, create and schedule the skills class that students must complete.

Classroom—A course held in a conventional, on-site facility which provides both the lecture and the skills (“hands on”) components of the curriculum.

Note   The Classroom program does not provide digital certification.

Digital Cert Card—Select this program type when you want to provide students digital certification at the successful completion of a program.

The Otis user interface ushers you through the following processes for each program type:

Enter Details—Where you select the course program type, the program, choose course dates, and the instructor(s) conducting the course.

Build Roster—Where you can create your roster by adding new student names, selecting students with prior training, or uploading an Excel spreadsheet containing your student’s names and email address.

Submit Class—Where you review and edit course details, enable the course email, and submit the class to the system.

Track Progress—Where you can see how students are progressing through a course, and where you can add scores or pass/fail designations. For certain programs, there are additional features, such as copying a roster to build a new course, located in this section.

Before You Begin

Check your credit balance before you begin building either a Blended, Remote Skills Verification, or Digital Certification course and make sure that the credits you have are applicable for the course you are building. For example, if you are building a Blended program, make sure you have enough Blended credits to begin building this program.

See  for more information about how you can remotely evaluate and certify up to three students per remote session.

Certification using Remote Skills Verification

Remote Skills Verification (RSV) is a fully-integrated portal that delivers remote hands-on skills verification through the OTIS 3.0 platform. RSV is available through the Blended Course program.

This feature also allows you to:

Designate the class as private, making the course visible only to the students you include in the roster. This is accomplished in the Enter Details page when you are Creating a Blended Course.

Certify up to three students per remote session.

There are three versions of an RSV Program. Discuss each option with your students to determine which RSV program version to build.

RSV Version

RSV Version Descriptions

RSV

The Training Center (TC) manages all the equipment and supplies. After the instructor certifies the student, the digital certification card delivers to the student in OTIS and via email.

RSVM

HSI ground-ships a loaner manikin that the student returns to HSI; additional supplies are included. Once Federal Express scans the return package, the student’s digital certification card is immediately emailed to the student.

RSVD

HSI ground-ships a manikin that the student keeps; additional supplies are included. Once the instructor certifies the student, the digital certification card delivers to the student in OTIS and via email.

For additional information, including recorded seminars which describe and demonstrate this feature, see:

https://emergencycare.hsi.com/remote-skills-verification

Step Sequence for Building a Remote Skills Session

The following is the sequence you should follow to schedule and perform a skills verification session.

1Ensure you have RSV credits or purchase RSV credits by navigating to the DASHBOARD > CREDITS.

See Reviewing your Credit Balance and/or Purchasing Credits for more information.

2Build a Blended Class. See Creating a Blended Course for more information. You can designate your class as private as you build the blended class.

Note   After you create the blended class, emails are sent to students to announce the class’s creation. Reminder emails are also sent periodically to the instructor and students up to one hour before the skills session. Ensure that Daily Email notifications enabled.

3The TC Director or instructors select their availability for remote skills session in the RSV Scheduling module, located at TRAINING > REMOTE TRAINING SCHEDULE. See Calendaring Your Availability for Remote Skills Verification Sessions.

Note   After completing the online (cognitive) portion, students receive an email to choose a day/time that you designate for their skills assessment. Students are prompted to schedule at least 10 days out to ensure they have received their skills equipment.

4Launch the skills session in Otis and perform the skills assessment. See Launching a Remote Skills Session and Performing a Remote Skill Assessment & Issuing a Digital Cert Card for more information.

5After student successfully completes their skills session, you can provide them their digital certification card electronically. Students are also sent their digital certification card by email.

Note   For students enrolled in the RSVM course, the student’s digital certification card is delivered electronically the moment that Federal Express scans the manikin’s return.
