Learning Path Development>Organizing Courses & Assigning Learning Paths
A learning path is a defined curriculum that contains assigned training courses that have been added to the LMS, such as online courses, classroom courses, and self-study courses. The learning path is then assigned to a group to ensure that all members of the group receive the same training curriculum.
For best practices, the name of the learning path should relate to its course content—it should reveal the main topic that the users will learn about. In addition, the courses within the learning path should be related—the combination of courses should build toward helping the user master a particular skill or competency.
To create a learning path
- Open the Administrative Dashboard
- Select Content tab, then under Organize Content section, select Learning Paths
- From the Learning Paths page, search or scroll to ensure the learning path you wish to add does not already exist. You can search by learning path name, description, or group access
- If you wish to continue and add a new one, select Add Learning Path
- Enter all the desired fields and then select Save
- The Learning Paths page reappears to include the newly-created learning path
