Status
The qualification card's status. This defines where the qualification card is in terms of completion and approval. If you have the security permissions to edit lists, you can add different status options, but the ones listed below have specific rules in VISION.
•Developing: In order to change a qual card's time, task set, or prerequisites, its status has to be either "Developing" or blank.
•Approved: A qualification card can only be put into approved status if it has at least one task or, if it is associated with a Program node, it must be associated with at least one Performance Assessment (PA) training unit. It must be in approved status in order to be given to learners.
•Archived: Select this status to keep the qual card but remove it from active qual card lists. You can find archived qual cards by searching for qualifications with this status on the qual card window.
•Edit List: If you have the edit-lists privilege, then you'll see an "Edit List" entry in the status list. You can select that to edit the list of statuses.
"Approved" Qual Cards
The qual card's status must be "Approved" before it can be seen by learners. If you are not sure what to do to put a Qual Card into Approved status, review the items on the Qual Card Status Checklist.
