CPC/MPQC Training & Competence Tracking (UK)

Plans CPC/MPQC competence tracking with reminders, evidence lists, and compliance reporting. USE WHEN maintaining training/certification readiness.

Security Scan

This is an instruction-only competence-tracking skill that bundles templates and a workflow that match its stated purpose and does not request additional credentials or installs.

Purpose & Capability

Skill name, description, workflow, and included templates all align: it creates a training matrix, reminders plan, and compliance report. No unexpected binaries, environment variables, or external services are requested.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md confines actions to confirming inputs, populating included templates, and asking the user before updating existing trackers. It does not instruct reading system files, reaching out to external endpoints, or accessing undeclared environment variables. Minor note: it asks the agent to 'map to your internal storage locations' — this is reasonable for the task but may prompt users to provide internal paths or identifiers.

Install Mechanism

No install specification and no code files beyond templates; nothing will be written to disk by an installer. Instruction-only skills present minimal install risk.

Credentials

No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are required. The level of access requested (none) is proportionate to the described functionality.

Persistence & Privilege

Skill is not always-enabled and does not request persistent or system-wide configuration changes. It can be invoked by the agent per normal platform behavior.

Assessment

This skill is coherently scoped and low-risk: it only provides templates and a workflow for tracking training/compliance. Before using, avoid pasting full sensitive records (e.g., full certificate images, personal identifiers) into the chat if you don't want them stored in agent logs; instead paste redacted examples or provide counts/dates. Confirm any internal storage paths or trackers with a human before allowing the agent to update them. Finally, note that the skill drafts reminders and reports but does not itself send emails/SMS—integrations that actually deliver reminders would need separate, explicit setup and credentials.

PURPOSE

Maintain audit-ready training and competence evidence: a matrix, reminders plan, and a compliance report view.

WHEN TO USE

• “Training and competence tracking: CPC/MPQC planning, reminders, certification evidence, compliance reporting.”
• “Write a toolbox talk on driver hours and breaks for next week.” (when tied to competence evidence)
• “Create a compliance training report for this month/quarter.”

DO NOT USE WHEN…

• Generic learning content not tied to compliance evidence.
• Requests for PowerPoints/company values decks.

INPUTS

• REQUIRED:
  • Driver list (name/ID), roles, depots
  • Required training types (CPC modules, MPQC, internal toolbox talks)
• OPTIONAL:
  • Expiry dates, certificates, providers, past completion records
  • Internal policy on frequency/mandatory modules (paste text)
• EXAMPLES:
  • “Need a monthly report and reminders for expiring MPQC.”

OUTPUTS

• training-matrix.md (Excel-ready)
• reminders-plan.md
• compliance-training-report.md
• Success criteria:
  • Evidence-ready fields (who/what/when/proof)
  • Clear upcoming expiries and owners

WORKFLOW

1. Confirm required training set and the reporting period.
   • IF missing → STOP AND ASK THE USER.
2. Create/refresh training matrix using assets/training-matrix-template.md.
3. Build reminders schedule using assets/reminder-plan-template.md.
4. Draft compliance report using assets/compliance-report-template.md.
5. Evidence standard:
   • Reference references/competence-evidence-standard.md and map to your internal storage locations.
6. If asked to update existing trackers → ASK FIRST.

OUTPUT FORMAT

# training-matrix.md
| Driver | Role | CPC due | CPC last completed | MPQC expiry | Last toolbox talk | Evidence link/location | Status (RAG) | Notes |
|--------|------|---------|-------------------|-------------|-------------------|------------------------|--------------|------|

SAFETY & EDGE CASES

• Don’t invent certificate numbers or dates; mark unknowns clearly.
• If training requirements vary by customer/site, create a “customer/site delta” section and ask for specifics.

EXAMPLES

• Input: “Plan reminders for MPQC expiries”
  • Output: matrix + reminders plan + monthly report draft
