Learning Paths - Creating and Managing a Learning Path

A learning path is a curriculum of assigned training courses added to the LMS and assigned to a group for consistent training.

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.

Checklists and Certifications are alternative ways to organize and assign training. If you're not sure which is best for you, see What’s the Best Way to Assign Learning: Learning Paths, Checklists, or Certifications? 

To create a learning path

  1. Open the Administrative Dashboard.
  2. Select Content tab, then under Organize Content section, select Learning Paths.
  3. 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.
  4. If you wish to continue and add a new one, select Add Learning Path.
