Assigning Content to Existing Learners

Learners can elect content from your catalog and other front end content displays.  Additionally, you may have content that you want to map or assign to Learners.  In order to begin assigning content, you will need to open the Learner profile and open the Access tab.

 

 1. Once you have the Access tab open, search for content to assign.  Content includes two areas.  The first is for mapping courses, ILT sessions, micro learning, etc.  It is a "smart type" field where you can click inside the search for content box, or you can begin typing to quickly locate the content.  
2. Add as many items at once as you need.  Select Add Content to push the selections to the Learners Activity Widget.
TIP:  Content available reflects content provisioned to your Panorama and Sublicense.  If you cannot locate what you seek then reach out to you CSM to make certain that you have access to assign from that library.
 
 
3. Once content is assigned to the Learner, it will appear on their Activity widget under the My Training tab.  
TIP:  Content not started with provide a Begin or Start button on the right side.  Once the learner opens the content, the button will change to "Continue" as depicted.  The content will remain in the My Learning tab until it is completed.  Users may decide to remove content that is no longer relevant, and that content will move to the Removed tab.  You will have access to the Learner removed items from the Administrator navigation shown above under the Access tab.
