Training reminders that chase overdue learners for you.

Assigning training is easy; getting people to finish it is the hard part. IQEducate sends automatic reminder emails so you aren't manually nudging individuals. Reminder profiles define when learners hear from the system — ahead of a due date to prompt them in time, and after it passes to push completion — so the follow-up happens on schedule without anyone playing chaser.

For training that really has to get done, reminders support escalation. When a due date slips, the reminders continue rather than going silent, keeping pressure on completion. Because reminders are driven by the same assignment and scheduling engine, they stay in sync with due dates, recurring renewals, and each learner's actual progress.

Before and after the due date

Reminder profiles let you decide the rhythm of communication around a due date, so learners get a timely heads-up and a clear prompt if they fall behind.

  • Pre-due reminders that prompt learners while there is still time
  • Post-due reminders that push overdue training toward completion
  • Escalation that keeps chasing when a due date has passed
  • Reminders tied to real assignment status, so finished learners stop hearing from the system

Escalation for what matters

Not every course needs the same intensity of follow-up. Escalation lets required or time-sensitive training keep prompting after the deadline instead of a single reminder that's easy to ignore.

A record of what was sent

Reminder activity is captured in a notification log, so you can see what was sent and when. That log is filterable and exportable to CSV, which is useful when you need to show that learners were prompted before training lapsed.

Frequently asked questions

When do reminder emails go out?

Reminder profiles send emails before a due date to prompt learners in time and after the due date to push overdue training toward completion.

What is escalation?

Escalation means reminders keep going after a due date passes instead of stopping, so required or time-sensitive training continues to be chased rather than quietly lapsing.

Do reminders stop once someone finishes?

Yes. Reminders are tied to real assignment status, so learners who complete their training stop receiving prompts.

Can I prove that reminders were sent?

Yes. A notification log records what was sent and when. It can be filtered and exported to CSV, which helps when you need evidence that learners were prompted.

Do reminders work with recurring training?

Yes. Reminders run on the same scheduling engine as recurring assignments, so each renewal cycle gets its own pre-due and post-due reminders.
