2. Locate the search field in the top navigation bar of the [manager portal](https://knowledge.organisations.ausmed.com.au/en/knowledge/what-is-the-manager-portal?hsLang=en):![](https://knowledge.organisations.ausmed.com.au/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202022-07-05%20at%2012-12-41%20pm-png.png)
3. Enter either the user's **User ID,** or their **First** **Name** and/or **Last** **Name** in the search field.
   
   **Tip:** For better results, make sure you add a space between the user's first and last names.
4. Scroll through the results to find the user you're looking for.
5. Click on the user's name to open their user transcript page.   
   ![](https://knowledge.organisations.ausmed.com.au/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202022-12-08%20at%2011-59-38%20am-png.png)

7. Locate and filter the **Source** column to isolate requirements created by your organisation's induction training plan(s).
8. Next, check if the completion date of the requirement is before the open date. If it is, this means recognition of prior learning due to Ausmed Passport™ has been applied. For example: ![](https://knowledge.organisations.ausmed.com.au/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202022-12-08%20at%2012-46-45%20pm-png.png)
