Assignment Positions

Assignment positions are used to automatically assign learning modules to a specific group of users.

Compared to the Administrative Position Types, Assignment Position Types have two additional tabs near the top of the page. Those being the Curriculums and Learning Modules tabs. You may add Curriculums in the Curriculums tab and the associated Learning Modules for the Curriculums added will be displayed in the Learning Modules Tab.

Other uses for Assignment Positions

These Positions can also be used in other places where you need to specify a specific audience, such as:

• Announcement Audiences

• Collections

• Global HR Groups

• Goals

• Resource Links

• Tasks

• etc.

Administrative Positions

Administrative Positions are used to assign specific Roles (instructor, administrator, etc.) to a group of users based on various filters.

When selecting this type, another dropdown box will appear saying Role. The Role you choose will be given to all user within this Position.

An example of how to automatically assign a role to certain users

Let’s say you need to give the Instructor role to users who have a certain job code. Then within the Position filters, you would choose the Instructor role and you would filter on that Job Code. Then when a new user is added to the system with that Job Code, then they will automatically be given the Instructor role, so that they don’t need to be manually given the Role.
