Course registration and approvals for NIH Training Center classes are handled through the LMS (HHS Learning Portal). The LMS interfaces with the NBS to obligate funds according to the CAN number manually entered during registration and approval.
After the Manager's approval of the LMS registration, the Additional Approver on Orders (AAO) is responsible for verifying that the CAN and financial information is valid. Once confirmed, the AAO’s approval of the student’s registration triggers the financial obligation and confirms the student’s seat in the class.
For information on how to designate or change a CAN on a pending order, or perform related functions in the LMS, please review TS74-A Add/Review a CAN on an Order--AAO.
More tip sheets on managing and approving training orders are located in the Managing Training Nominations document.
For LMS technical problems and system access, please submit an LMS Help Desk Ticket.
For FY13 and beyond, the following options are available for training procurement:
Existing iProcurement users will not automatically gain access to this module. Users, existing and new, will be required to complete the NIH iProcurement for External Training: Requestor and Approver which is available in the LMS before access is granted. A paper or PDF SF 182 form must be used as the approval documentation for training enrollments purchased with iProcurement. Additional information and tip sheets will be shared as they are made available.
If you have more than one individual attending the same training, you may create a single SF-182 and then attach the SF-182 Supplement for Group Training Nominations.
For technical assistance or access requests regarding iProcurement, please contact the NIH Service Desk, which will route requests directly to the NBS Helpdesk.
NIH Purchase Card – Individuals who have a Purchase Card may continue to purchase training using this method. Please refer to the NIH Purchase Card Program for additional policy information and requirements.
All purchases that enroll a student into training made with iProcurement or a Purchase Card are required to be entered into the student’s transcript in the LMS (HHS Learning Portal) after attendance has been verified.
Each IC is responsible for managing their business process and choice of iProcurement or the NIH purchase card for training purchase needs. Please contact your IC representative on the IC LMS Primary Points of Contact for IC specific guidance on roles, use of system, system access, and training needed for authorized users.
