Quiz invitations, reminders, and study guides.
Message frequency:
Message frequency varies with training activity.
Message and data rates:
Standard carrier message and data rates may apply.  ShiftTrained does not charge employees for text messages.

How Employees Opt In

  1. A restaurant manager with a ShiftTrained account invites the employee to take a training quiz.
  2. The employee opens the quiz link and lands on a registration screen (demonstrated below).
  3. The employee enters their contact information and taps “Continue.” The SMS consent checkbox is optional and unchecked by default; the Continue button is always enabled.  Ticking the checkbox authorizes ShiftTrained to send the employee future training-related messages (quiz reminders, study guides). US and Canadian numbers receive these by SMS; numbers outside those countries receive them by WhatsApp, because business SMS from a US long code is undeliverable in much of the world. One consent covers both channels, and replying STOP on either stops both.  Employees who do not tick the checkbox can still take the quiz and continue to be reached by their manager via email; no SMS or WhatsApp messages are sent to employees who have not opted in.
