Information

Courses are the foundation for all other functions in the course management area. Once you have created courses, you can create sessions and participants. You can create courses from any position in your client.

Method

1. On the Learning tab, click New course.

2. In the Select course template dialog box, select the template for your course.

By selecting a course template, appropriate values for the keywording are generated automatically when you create a course.

3. Fill out the fields in the New course dialog box as required.

Fields with a pencil icon contain keyword lists. When you enter a value in the respective field, matching list entries appear.

Course number: The course number is generated automatically as soon as you have created the course. If you enter an internal number to the field, no automatic number is generated. This field can be read-only meaning it is only possible for numbers to be generated automatically.

Instructor: If you enter an instructor for the course, they are given access to the course and can create course materials and course contents.

Certificate template: Configure a template for the certificate that participants receive after completing the course.

A new course has the status D - Draft phase.

Outlook

The course can now be edited.
