Learning Path Templates

Learning path templates serve to make the creation of learning paths simple and precise by allowing as many settings as possible to be done already at template level and thus predefined for learning paths based on the corresponding template. This unifies learning path settings with simple principles.

When creating learning path templates, a learning path type is selected on which the learning path template is based. Settings predefined at learning path type level are already preselected for the learning path template.

It is also possible not to further restrict learning path types and templates and to make all settings individually at learning path level itself.

Learning path templates basically consist of the same tabs as learning paths. All settings can be found in the learning path of a learning path template and can be further specified there if necessary. The availability of these tabs depends on the settings of the learning path type.

Learning path templates can be made directly accessible to learners via the catalogue. In this case, learning paths are selected via the learning path template.

Functions in the Learning Path Template Management

Syllabus

Courses and course templates can be added here and grouped in folders. The order of the elements can be freely determined.

Rules can be created for the learning path itself, for a curriculum folder, for a course or for a course template. The rules defined at learning path template level are inherited by the learning paths based on this template.

It can be defined whether courses should be booked automatically when the learner books or is booked on the learning path. The same applies to the cancellation of the learning path, it can be defined whether the automatically booked course is also cancelled.

General Protection Level

If this checkbox is active and the level is completed once, level is protected forever even if new content is added to it so that the learners do not need to do it again.

Administrators

At least one administrator must be assigned to each learning path template. This is done via a separate tab in the learning path template administration. For the assigned administrators, it can be determined whether they receive and are authorised to receive learning path notifications and whether these are displayed on the description page, e.g. in the catalogue.

Prerequisites

Booking requirements can be defined for learning path templates. Course groups, learning paths, levels of a learning path, course templates, courses, skills and job profiles (with Add On "Skill and Competence Management") and groups are available for selection. This preselection is inherited by the learning paths based on this template.

Whether prerequisites can be edited depends on which setting was made for the underlying main type.

In addition, subsets of preconditions can be created with the possibility of specifying how many components must be fulfilled for the bundle to be considered fulfilled.
