Still have questions about PurelyHR?

Common questions about our time tracking, leave management, and HR software.

PurelyHR Talent is a qualification and training tracker that centralizes employee certifications, licenses, accreditations, and training in one place, so your team stays compliant and audit-ready. You create qualification types, add the specific credentials your team needs (with details like expiry dates, documentation, and prerequisites), then assign them to employees in a few clicks. Every qualification connects directly to the employee’s file in the Staff module, giving you one central hub for all personnel and compliance data.

PurelyHR Talent tracks four qualification categories, training, certifications, licenses, and accreditations, plus additional talents like language proficiency, education, professional memberships, and recognition. For each qualification, you can record a name, code, description, estimated completion time, expiry date, renewal timeframe, prerequisites, and supporting documentation. This gives you a complete, real-time view of who holds which credential and who is due for renewal.

PurelyHR Talent sends automated email reminders when qualifications are upcoming or about to expire, so renewals happen before anything lapses. In the Email Reminders settings, you choose who gets notified (employee, manager, or administrator) and how many days in advance the reminder is sent, for both upcoming and expiring qualifications. Set the expiry date once, and Talent handles the follow-up, so you stop tracking renewals by hand and maintain compliance across the organization.

Yes, PurelyHR Talent lets you assign qualifications by role, team, or individual employee in just a few clicks. This targeted assignment makes sure the right people hold the right credentials, and you can pull reports to see who is qualified at a glance and who is due for renewal. It keeps professional development and compliance aligned to how your organization is actually structured.

Yes, you can mark any qualification as mandatory in PurelyHR Talent to enforce compliance control. When you create or edit a qualification, simply toggle the Mandatory field so it is clearly flagged as required for the assigned employees. Combined with automated expiry reminders and export-ready compliance reports, mandatory flags help you stay audit-ready and reduce the risk of missed renewals.

Employees upload proof of completion directly through their profile in PurelyHR, attaching a file that confirms they finished the qualification. When setting up a qualification, admins can require proof of completion and control who is allowed to update it, so an employee can log in and upload their document once done. Supported file formats include .doc, .docx, .pdf, .txt, .xls, .xlsx, .ppt, .pptx, and .jpg/.jpeg.

Yes, PurelyHR Talent is purpose-built for small and mid-sized businesses that want certification tracking embedded inside their HR system, not bolted on as a separate tool. It replaces fragile spreadsheets with automated reminders, audit-ready documentation, and fast setup (hours, not weeks), without the complexity or cost of a full LMS. Backed by free unlimited support, SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 security, and modular pricing with a 21-day free trial, it scales with your team as you grow.

Yes, PurelyHR Talent lets you attach files and supporting evidence to qualifications, keeping audit-ready proof on file. When setting up a certification, you can upload documentation or link to relevant resources, and require a proof-of-completion file once the qualification is finished. All supporting documents are stored centrally and linked to the employee’s profile, so certificates and evidence are retrievable in minutes for audits or reviews.
