Must know
  • Achievements and badges are part of Training. Find them under Settings > Training, on plans that include Training.
  • Conditions award automatically. An achievement with conditions is awarded when an athlete meets every one. One with none can only be awarded by hand.
  • Awards stay hidden from families until someone with Publish Achievements publishes them, unless the achievement has Publish awards automatically on.
  • Deleting a badge removes it from every athlete who holds it. You can’t delete one while an achievement still grants it.
Where to find it. Settings > Training > Achievements has an All achievements tab and, for staff with Publish Achievements, an Awaiting publish tab. Opening the Achievements or Badges page needs View Settings. Creating an achievement or badge needs Create Training, and changing one needs Edit Training.
1

Create the achievement

Click New Achievement. Enter a Name (for example “First Competition”) and optionally a Description, Badge image and Color. Leave Publish awards automatically off so awards wait in Awaiting publish, or turn it on so every award goes straight to the family. Click Create. The achievement opens on its Rule tab, beside Awarded athletes and (for publishers) Awaiting publish.
2

Set how athletes earn it

Award this achievement automatically starts on. Under How athletes earn it, switch on each condition you want and pick its values: Gender, Age, Membership and Pass (shown when your club uses memberships and passes), Waiver, Medical information, Holds level (holds or has completed), Holds achievement (published awards only) or Completed evaluation (on the templates you pick).Combining conditions. Every condition you switch on must be met. Within one condition, any one pick counts. To require all, tick All selections must be satisfied for this requirement to be met. (offered once you pick two or more, except for Gender).

Choose what earning it grants

Under What earning it grants, pick Grant these levels, Mark these levels completed (the level moves to the athlete’s history) and Grant these badges. These apply on every award, and revoking one never takes them back.
4

Save the rule

Click Save changes.
When awards happen. Uplifter checks an athlete when a membership or pass is granted, a waiver is signed, medical information is saved, a level is granted, an evaluation is completed or another achievement is awarded. An age rule is also checked on its own, so the achievement is awarded once the athlete reaches the age. Saving a rule doesn’t look back: an athlete who already qualifies is checked at their next qualifying event, or you can award it by hand. Pausing an achievement. Turn Award this achievement automatically off and the Rule tab shows “Paused: automatic awarding is off.” If a program, membership, booking or competition still requires the achievement, saving asks you to choose:
  • Keep requiring it (recommended): athletes who already hold it still pass, and staff can still award it by hand.
  • Stop requiring this achievement: it’s removed from every rule, and a rule left accepting nothing switches off.
When automatic awarding turns itself off. Deleting a level, membership, pass, waiver, evaluation template or achievement that a condition uses turns automatic awarding off, and the Rule tab explains why under Automatic awarding was turned off. Review the conditions, turn it back on and save. Create badges. Go to Settings > Training > Badges and click New Badge. Enter a Name and optionally a Description, Badge image and Color, then click Create Badge. Achievements hand it out through Grant these badges, or staff can award it from an athlete’s profile. What families see. Families see achievements on the Achievements page in the family portal. What families see first on the All achievements tab picks the view they land on: Earned and in progress (the default) or Earned only. They can still switch. Click Save changes to keep your pick (needs Edit Training). Only achievements with a Completed evaluation condition show progress; others appear once earned. Where else achievements are used. A level’s Required achievements (optional) and the registration rules on programs, memberships, bookings and competitions can require one. Awarding and publishing are in the companion article.
