Use Learning Plans to centralize your training playlists
Note: This option is only available in Player 7.0+
You can guide Player facilitation from your main office by creating Learning Plans in Manager, assigning plans to specific worksites, and having local worksite download the playlist in Player. These new Learning Plan playlists can be used in both group-based training sessions with the remotes and in Kiosk mode. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- You determine which Learning Plan playlists appear in Player
- You can choose to remove a Learning Plan playlist from Player at any time
- Only active Learning Plans will appear in the listing
- If your Learning Plan has a due date, then that date will also appear
- A Learning Plan that has a Late completion and is currently past due, will not appear in the listing
- Learning Plan playlists will only display items that can be delivered through Player
- Learning Plan subscriptions and reports are only viewed and edited through Manager
Best Practices for facilitating training with Learning Plan playlists:
- Determine first which Learning Plans are appropriate for your Player facilitation
- In most cases, a playlist should not exceed the length of a single training session
- Learning Plans with a large number of courses generally would not work well as a playlist
- You may wish to create a series of smaller Learning Plans for facilitation, and a separate, all-encompassing Learning Plan for reporting
- Use good naming conventions to guide your facilitators (eg, ATX Facilitation Safety)
- Communicate Learning Plan assignments with your training facilitators
- Consider creating Learning Plans with Player-only content
