How do I use the approvals feature?

Admins can approve worker's answers, uploads and completed courses.

How to get there

To access the 'Approvals' feature, the feature must be enabled on the account.
A user must be a general contractor administrator or project administrator and signed into the
GoContractor admin portal.

As a general contractor administrator, you're able to configure your qualifications so that certain requirements (such as OSHA 10/30, Safe Pass, Name of Employer, etc.) need to be approved by an administrator before the worker or subcontractor company is allowed on the worksite.

If you have this feature enabled, you can follow the steps below to approve workers and subcontractors.
