Prerequisites can be used to ensure your users take training in the proper order by requiring students to complete certain modules before beginning others. Each module can have one or more prerequisites.
Setting a prerequisite for a Learning Module
Search and edit the Learning Module that needs a prerequisite set. Under the More tab, go to Prerequisites.
Either quickly search for and add Learning Modules in the Quick Add field or click Advanced Search to search with more filters and/or add multiple modules at once.
Search for and check all of the modules you would like to add. Clicking the Advanced dropdown up top will allow you to filter by Learning Module Type. When all of your desired modules have been checked, click Use Selected Items.
Only Active Learning Modules can be added as Prerequisites.
Student View with Prerequisites
If the student has outstanding prerequisites for a module, they won’t be able to start the module. Instead, they’ll see instructions about completing the prerequisites first.
If they click the View Prerequisites button, they will see a list of the prerequisites and an indication of which ones have not been completed.
Rules for Enforcing Prerequisites
For a prerequisite requirement to be enforced, the following must be true:
The assignment must be required with a due date.
The prerequisite module must also be assigned and required with a due date.
Other exceptions
A few other cases where prerequisite requirements are not enforced:
The assignment is a retake.
The user has already started the training for the assignment.
The prerequisite module has been completed in the past.
Instructor Led Training modules will always allow users to register for sessions, regardless of prerequisites.
