Digital logbooks with built-in supervisor sign-off
Replace paper Form 5s with structured digital logbooks. Learners record tasks, upload evidence, and log workplace hours. Supervisors sign off. Assessors and moderators verify. Every action creates an immutable audit trail.
Why paper logbooks fail
Paper logbooks get lost, damaged, or filled in weeks after the fact. Supervisor signatures are chased over WhatsApp. Evidence is scattered across phone galleries and filing cabinets. When audit time comes, reconstruction takes weeks.
- ✗Entries are often backdated or bulk-filled
- ✗Evidence is disconnected from logbook records
- ✗Supervisor chasing is time-consuming and manual
- ✗No way to verify hours were actually worked
- ✗Paper is lost, damaged, or incomplete at audit time
With digital logbooks
- Entries are timestamped at the time of recording
- Evidence is attached directly to each entry
- Supervisors sign off in the platform — no chasing
- Hours are tracked and tallied automatically
- Full audit trail — nothing can be lost or altered

The sign-off chain
Every logbook entry moves through a structured pipeline: learner submits, supervisor reviews, assessor verifies, moderator confirms. At each stage, the action is timestamped and the responsible person is recorded.
