SLS Assessing App

All clubs are encouraged to commence using the SLS Assessing App.  A suitable approach would be for each club to test on a small group of users before rolling out club-wide to ensure you are familiar with the process, but it is ready to go and can be used for Skills Maintenance this season.  

The Assessor App can be downloaded through the App Store, and clubs already have it installed on the tablets distributed by SLSNSW.  A User Guide and can be downloaded from the Document Library within the Members Portal https://members.sls.com.au/SLSA_MembersOnline/public/document_library. 

SLSNSW has produced a series of short videos to make the information in the User Guides more easily digestible.

  • Introductory video –  click here to access the video
  • “How to” video (s) –
    • How to install the app– click here to access the video
    • How to create an event – click here to access the video
    • How to assess, mark off and complete an event –click here to access the video

For those creating events, this can be also done on a PC via sls.assess.etrainu.com.

From discussions with SLSNSW, it seems proficiencies work best when candidates pre-register.  Members can do this via the members’ portal, and selecting ELearning, then looking for the relevant proficiency date listed under the “Training Events” section and clicking on it to register – refer screenshot below.

An FAQ document being finalised and released shortly by SLSNSW

If you have any questions or need assistance with using the App Club Chief Training officers can contact  SLSS  Manager Education, David Kowald

Request for Bronze Medallion Trainers Assistance – Garie SLSC Recruitment Program

Garie SLSC has been working to recruit new members to their Club, via the Garie ‘Vanguard Program’ – working directly with residents from Western Sydney. As one of SLS Sydney’s smaller clubs, Garie SLSC doesnt have the training team needed to deliver this course, therefore Sydney branch is requesting the asisstance from the Bronze Medallion Trainers within the Branch.
This is a great opportunity for experienced Trainers to share their skills with these new candidates, and as a Branch we are hoping we can show a great team approach from across our SLSS clubs.
more information can be found here  on how to get involved.
