Can I set courses/learning plans with different start dates and durations?

Deadlines can be set for both learning plans and individual courses. Since the assignment of learning content in the 3-Level-System is usually automatic, this is only necessary if you want to set specific deadlines for your learners.

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

Here is how to find the first course in a learning plan:

1

Click the folder icon in the top-left corner of the menu.

2

Select "Learning Plans."

3

Open the desired learning plan.

4

Switch to the "Courses" tab.

5

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

6

Open this course to edit the enrollments.

Here is how to set a deadline if the user is not yet enrolled:

1

Open the desired course (the first course in the learning plan for Level 2 or 3).

2

Go to the "Enrollments" tab.

3

Select one or more users.

4

Enroll the users and set the desired deadline.

Here is how to set a deadline if the user is already enrolled:

1

open the desired course

2

Go to the "Enrollments" tab.

3

Select the desired user or multiple users.

4

Open the context menu and select "Edit Enrollment."

5

Set or change the deadline.
