How to assign training Courses to Users

Hello and welcome to eLeaP. In this quick tutorial, we are looking at how you can assign training courses or courses in general.

You’ve got a couple of simple but effective ways to do this. You can go into any course, and so I’m going to click on the courses menu and select a course here. And within that course you have an option right here on the left to assign. Now you can assign to users directly from here and you will simply need to click the assign new users button, and that will bring up your user list. You’ve got filtering options here. You can filter by role, level, select an existing user group, even select an existing course or of course, status to be able to get your users filtered. In addition to this, you can utilize the custom fields to have further selection options enabled. Once you determine who you want to assign the training to, you simply click the check box next to their name and you can do this for multiple users across multiple pages.

The system creates an ad hoc list of users for you to assign, and once you are ready, simply click the add selected, confirm this action, and the system will assign the training course to those users. So this is the simplest and easiest way to assign.

You can also go directly to a user’s profile. So I’ll bring up an example user right now. And within that user’s profile, you have an option right over here to click Assign New Courses. If you click on that button, you will then be able to search for specific courses that you can assign to this user directly. So simply select the course and click add selected, and that course goes directly to that user. So again, that is a very simple and effective way to assign this training to this particular user from the user’s profile.

We do have other options. Courses can be assigned or trainings can be assigned via a learning path. A learning path is a combination of training courses, and so if you have a learning path created, simply go into the learning path, go to the assigned user section, and you will be able to assign that to a user. Please note that if you do assign a learning path, all courses within that learning path will be assigned because it is a container. So again, that is another option.

Last but not least, should you set up some of your courses for self-enrollment it basically means that end users can go to the self-enrollment section and they can select courses that you have there, and they can enroll themselves in that course without waiting for you to assign. But it is important to note that this option exists only if you allow the course to be a self-enrollment training course.

As usual, if you have any questions about this or any other features in the system, please do not hesitate to contact us.
