The Problem
Your Team Is Trained. Your Matrix Just Doesn't Know It Yet.
Keeping your skills matrix current isn't a discipline problem. It's a system problem.
A procedure gets revised
You update WI-042. Everyone trained on the old version is now non-compliant — and your matrix has no way of flagging it.
Someone forgets to update the sheet
Training happens. The matrix doesn't get updated for weeks. Now your records don't match reality, and you have no audit trail for when the discrepancy started.
Version control breaks down
Which matrix is current — the one on the shared drive, Sarah's emailed copy, or the one from last year's audit? There's no single source of truth — and auditors will look for one.
How It Works
A Skills Matrix That Updates Itself
Training Tiger connects your documents and training records. The skills matrix is generated from actual completions — not from someone remembering to update a spreadsheet.
Upload your controlled documents
Add your SOPs, work instructions, and quality procedures. Assign them to employees or training groups — Training Tiger handles the rest.
See document control
Employees complete training with proof
Staff read the document and pass an AI-generated quiz. Every completion is recorded with a timestamp, document revision, and score — comprehension proven, not assumed.

The skills matrix is generated from real training records — always reflecting actual status. Update a document and Training Tiger automatically flags who needs retraining. No spreadsheet, no manual work.

FAQ
Common Questions
What is skills matrix software?
Skills matrix software tracks employee competence across required procedures, work instructions, and job tasks. It replaces manual spreadsheets by automatically recording training completions, flagging gaps, and generating audit-ready reports. For ISO 9001, it provides documented evidence of competence as required by Clause 7.2.
Does ISO 9001 require a skills matrix?
ISO 9001:2015 Clause 7.2 requires organizations to determine necessary competence, ensure people have it, and retain documented information as evidence. A skills matrix is the most common way to demonstrate this to auditors. Skills matrix software automates the creation and maintenance of this evidence.
How is Training Tiger different from an Excel skills matrix?
Excel matrices require manual updates every time someone completes training or a document is revised. Training Tiger generates the skills matrix automatically from real training records — when an employee completes training, the matrix updates instantly. When a document is revised, Training Tiger automatically flags who needs retraining and triggers the process.
What does ISO training matrix software need to track?
An ISO training matrix needs to track: which employees are assigned to which documents or procedures, whether training has been completed, the date of completion, the document revision the employee was trained on, and evidence of competence (quiz scores or supervisor sign-off). Training Tiger tracks all of this automatically.
Your next audit doesn't have to be stressful
Training Tiger keeps your skills matrix current without the manual work — so when the auditor asks, you're ready in seconds.
