Smart Button Display
Course action buttons are super smart, displaying to each user based on their individual training status. Intuitive logic compares a user's most recent training history -- including enrollment and interest transcripts -- against course enrollment settings, to determine which action buttons provide the appropriate next step.
Add / Edit Course Settings
- Enrollment Open / Close Date -- Configured for all course types. Action buttons only display for active courses, between Enrollment Open Date and Enrollment Close Date.
- Enrollment Restrictions -- Configured for all course types. Default is "Once Only", but can be set to allow multiple enrollments.
- Can Relaunch -- eLearning and Self-Study courses may allow users who have completed the course to Review Course. Default is "Yes".
- Self-Certified Completion -- Self-Study courses default "Yes" to display Mark Complete button.
- Allow Use of Interest List -- Classroom courses can be set to utilize interest list, or not. Default is "Yes".
- Offering Cancel Days -- Classroom Offerings can be configured with a number of days prior to first meeting time that users are able to Cancel their enrollment.
Tables below show which buttons display for each type of course, based on user status.
