If you set the table up propely, you could treat it as a data source
to run SQL queries against, that generate custom reports on different
worksheets.
One report could list all users who still need to train for a specific
module version.
If you're really technical, you could rig a button that updates the
original data sheet once training is checked off.
Peace,
