How Do I Configure Learning Paths?
Learning paths can be assigned to trainees to provide a structured sequence to the courses allocated to them. Once a learning path is created, it is possible to assign existing trainees to it, along with additional courses.
When a learner who has been assigned to a learning path logs into their portal, they will see a list of courses displayed in the order defined during the learning path setup. This is the sequence in which the courses must be completed.
Initial Set Up:
- On the left side menu, go to Settings and click Learning Paths.
- Click New Learning Path.
- Enter the Name and Description.
- Select the course(s) from the dropdown options (you can select multiple).
- Click Save & Submit.
This is required before you can add Learning Paths:
