Can courses/learning plans be set up with different start dates or durations?

Deadlines can be set both for learning plans and for individual courses. Since learning content is generally assigned automatically in the 3-level system, this is only necessary if you want to define specific completion deadlines for your learners.

Setting a deadline for an entire learning plan causes all courses in the learning plan to appear early under "My Courses". This can make the order of the courses in the Dashboard unclear. Therefore, whenever possible, deadlines should be set on the first course of a learning plan. This course will then also be shown to learners in the Dashboard.

How to find the first course of a learning plan:

1

Click the folder icon in the menu at the top left.

2

Select "Learning Plans".

3

Open the desired learning plan.

4

Switch to the "Courses" tab.

There you will see all included courses and can identify the first course in the respective level structure.

6

Open this course to edit the enrollments.
