What is a Path?
Paths allow you to string together multiple content objects that can be assigned with a specific due date. Paths are great for use cases like onboarding or learning paths. In the example below, you can see that there's an Onboarding Guide, a New Hire Check List, and a Corporate Pitch Certification that are linked together. A Path is useful if you want users to complete a set of Guides to build knowledge sequentially.
Creating a Path
There are two ways to create a Path:
In the main Training Admin page, there's the small option for "Create New" on the bottom of your list of folders which will open up an array of options including Folders, Guides, and Paths.
Another, more obvious way, is to click on the large "Path" box in the middle of the training admin screen.
Adding Content to the Path
When adding modules to your Path, you can search for specific trainings using the search bar or navigate through your folders to find a set of trainings.
Modules can be organized by sections. If you do not want to use sections, simply keep the default section Untitled and it will not appear as a section to Learners.
In the Path overview page, you have the option to add a Badge to be awarded once the Learner completes the Path.
Within the settings, which can be found in the overflow menu on the top right, there is an option to require the Path to be completed in order. Checking this box means a user can't progress to the next training object until they have successfully completed the ones prior. If enabling that option, you have the ability to require the user to pass each learning object successfully in order to continue. Passing is determined by the test settings of each training.
The settings panel:
Assigning the Path
When you have finished creating your Path, return to the overview page and use the [Assign this Path] button to assign out the Path. Due dates are optional and you can also include a custom message in the assignment email.
Here is what a Path assignment would look like to Learners:
