What is a training request form?

A training request form is how a manager or learner asks for a session that does not have a public ticket page yet: a closed cohort, a bespoke workshop, or a seat on an existing catalogue course. US L&D teams use it to queue budget approval; UK teams often need it before a purchase order can be raised.

It is not enrolment. Enrolment happens after someone agrees the date, the trainer, and the cost. The form stops the request living only in a hallway conversation.

What schedulers need to say yes or no

Urgency without a date is noise. A date without a topic is a room booking, not training.

  • Name and work email so you can tell a personal Gmail from a budget holder.
  • Request type for general catalogue vs urgent compliance vs a follow-up cohort.
  • Preferred date even if it is a range you later negotiate.
  • Details for headcount, location or Teams, and the skill gap in one paragraph.

Do not collect salary bands or performance-review scores on a shared HTML form. Keep this operational.

How training demand is captured

ServiceNow and Workday learning modules exist in enterprises. HTML is how SMEs and providers still run.

1. HTML on the L&D intranet page

Works on SharePoint HTML web parts and static internal sites.

2. ITSM tickets

Correct when training is treated as a service catalogue item with SLAs.

3. Email the trainer

No queue, no reporting, easy to miss when they are delivering.

4. LMS ‘request course’ buttons

Use when you already have Cornerstone or similar; this form covers gaps and external buyers.

Provider marketing sites and intranet pages

Training companies with a static catalogue can put this under ‘bespoke programmes’ instead of a generic contact form.

Internal US and UK teams should still route approved requests into the HRIS for budget; the HTML form is the front door.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the same as workshop registration?

No. Registration is for a published session. This is a request to create or allocate training that may not exist yet.

Can managers approve in the form?

Not in the default HTML. Collect the request, then use email or your HRIS approval.

Multi-day programmes?

Put date range and cohort size in details.

Mandatory compliance training?

Use request type Urgent and say so in details so L&D can prioritise.
