Employee Training and Qualification Management for Contractors
Your workers can’t start the job until they’re compliant, and the deadline is usually closer than anyone would like. We know ISNetworld®, Avetta® and Veriforce® inside and out. We quickly assign the right training, make sure it’s recorded correctly in each system, and track every worker’s compliance so your crew is ready before the job begins.

Your company account is in good shape, the crew is ready to mobilize, and then the hiring client’s system shows half your workers as unqualified. Missing orientations, unassigned courses, expired cards, training uploaded to the wrong place. The job doesn’t start until it’s fixed.
If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. These systems are hard to navigate, every hiring client sets its requirements differently, and the deadlines don’t leave room to figure it out as you go. Workers aren’t allowed on the job until they’re compliant, so every gap costs you time on site.
That’s where we come in. We work in these systems every day, so we know where each requirement lives, which training satisfies it and how to get it recorded correctly. The same consultant who manages your company account handles your crew, too.
What employee training management includes

What each hiring client requires, by worker, job type and site.
Employee Profiles
Workers set up correctly in each platform so requirements can be assigned.

ISNetworld® TQ & Training Matrices
TQ assignments, job-specific requirements and qualification documentation.
Pre-Job Compliance Tracking
We track every worker's status and confirm they're compliant before the job begins, fixing gaps along the way.
We identify required training, set up employee profiles, assign courses quickly, coordinate orientations and badging, and track every worker’s compliance right up to the start date.
Why do hiring clients check training for each worker?
Because a compliant company can still send an unqualified worker. Prequalification shows that your company has the right programs, insurance and safety record. Worker-level requirements show that each person on site has the training, orientations and qualifications for the job they’re doing. Hiring clients increasingly want both, and many check worker status before anyone can badge in.
That makes worker training an administrative job of its own: new hires, turnover, expiring cards and different requirements for each client and site. For a company without a full-time safety manager, it’s easy to fall behind.
What is ISNetworld TQ?
TQ, or Training Qualifications, is the ISNetworld® tool that lets hiring clients specify and track the training required for individual tasks. A hiring client sets up a training matrix, often by job type or site, and your workers have to show the required qualifications in ISNetworld before they can do that work.
To meet TQ requirements, your employees first have to be entered in the employee section of your ISNetworld account and assigned to the right hiring client requirements. Training completed in ISNetworld can count automatically. For training completed elsewhere, ISN’s own guides note that each hiring client decides whether you can apply credit.
We manage TQ assignments, job-specific training requirements, training matrices and qualification documentation, and we track down the deficiencies that keep workers from qualifying. For more on ISN ID cards and site access, see our guide to ISNetworld employee training and badging.
How does Avetta handle worker training and qualifications?
Avetta® hiring clients can set qualification and training requirements by role and location through Avetta’s worker management tools. Your company is responsible for uploading worker licenses and certifications and making sure each worker completes the required training, orientations and site inductions, often through Avetta’s learning management system. Some sites also use badge scanning to control access, so gaps show up at the gate.
We set up your workers, upload certifications, track required courses and keep each worker’s status current, alongside your Avetta® Management Plan.
Job starting soon and workers aren't compliant?
Send us the hiring client’s requirements or a screenshot of what’s missing. Because we already know these systems, we can get started right away, assign the training that’s needed and track each worker until they’re compliant. The first review is free.
How does Veriforce handle employee training?
Veriforce® lets contractors track employee training, build training matrices and classify employees by job, location or department. Hiring clients can then see whether your workers have the training their work requires. Some operators also require specific Veriforce training courses, such as orientations, before workers can start.
Operator Qualification (OQ) for pipeline work is a separate requirement. In the U.S., it’s handled through VeriSource, Veriforce’s OQ subscription, not through the Veriforce Compliance Pro® prequalification account. We keep training records and matrices current alongside your Veriforce® Management Plan.
Will hiring clients accept your crew's OSHA 10 and 30 cards?
Sometimes, but not on their own. OSHA 10 and OSHA 30 cards come from OSHA’s Outreach Training Program, which OSHA describes as voluntary. Some states and many hiring clients require them anyway, and hiring clients often add their own orientations and task-specific training on top. For your company, that means each worker’s card has to be uploaded to the right place in each platform, and every requirement on the client’s matrix still has to be met.
Will your workers have to retake training they've already completed?
It depends on the hiring client. Many clients accept outside training if the records are uploaded or credited correctly; others require their own courses. In ISNetworld®, for example, each hiring client with an online training requirement decides whether contractors can apply credit for training passed outside ISNetworld. We check each client’s rules first, so you don’t pay for, or pull workers off the job for, courses they’ve already passed.
Beyond compliance: building a training program that lasts
Meeting a hiring client’s matrix is the minimum. Many of our clients also want training that actually builds a safer crew. We help companies set up structured employee training and development programs through learning management systems (LMS): required safety training, refresher courses, ongoing education and professional development. The goal is better hazard awareness, safer work habits and more accountability on the job, not just a passing status.

How Cascade QMS manages your crew's training
Every hiring client and site can set different training requirements. We map them by worker, job type and location.
Employee profiles, course assignments, orientations, badging, OSHA cards and certifications, TQ documentation.
We confirm every worker’s status before your start date, then keep it current as you add new hires, training expires and hiring clients change their requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
We start as soon as you send the requirements. Because we work in ISNetworld®, Avetta® and Veriforce® every day, we can assign training and get records into the right place quickly. How soon each worker shows compliant also depends on the training itself and the hiring client’s review, so the earlier you reach out before your start date, the better.
We identify the required courses, assign them, coordinate site orientations and upload completed training. For ongoing training, we help you set up structured programs through a learning management system (LMS). Many hiring clients require their own courses, which workers complete through the client’s platform.
Yes. We set up employee profiles, track requirements for each worker and keep records current as you hire, as training expires and as hiring clients add requirements.
All three. Each platform handles worker training differently, and we manage the requirements in ISNetworld®, Avetta® and Veriforce® for our clients.
It depends on how many workers and hiring clients are involved. The first review of your requirements is free. Use the form or call 1-855-792-5722.
We’re not able to help with individual worker logins, passwords or training records. We work with contractor companies to manage their accounts. Please contact your employer’s account administrator, or the platform’s own support team, for help with your login.
Training requirements are set by each hiring client and can change. Generic training does not automatically satisfy a hiring client’s or regulator’s requirement; confirm current requirements with your hiring client.
