Relative Date Learning Plans

To see more about Learning Plan types, view Learning Plan Options. For information on how to create a Learning Plan, see Create a New Relative Date Learning Plan.

Relative Date Learning Plans

Relative date learning plans have due dates set relative to each user’s assignment date. Deadlines are anchored to when a plan is assigned to an individual, rather than tied to a fixed calendar date shared by everyone. Relative date learning plans contain a completion window and a late completion option. 

Guidelines

• The clock starts as soon as the Learning Plan is subscribed.
• Optional: Add a Late completion window to provide additional time to complete the Learning Plan past the initial due date
• When a Relative Learning Plan is edited, the current Learning Plan will be archived and a new version of the Learning Plan will be created.
  
  • Users who have not completed the LP will be reassigned to the new version.
  • Users will retain their start date.
• Optional: Times can be added to the time due (set in the time zone of the administrator who created the Learning Plan).
• Optional: Add a Late completion window to provide additional time to complete the Learning Plan past the initial due date
  • Activities can be completed in Player, eLearning, Playbook and Coach within the Late completion window to receive credit 
  • Past due Learning Plans will only appear in eLearning, under My Learning Plans
  • Past due Learning Plans will not appear in Player during the Late completion window
• For new Relative Date Learning Plans, the Restrict Editing and Repeat this plan toggles will appear after adding activities. They will automatically appear for existing Relative Date learning plans.

Best Practices

• Use as a Follow-up Learning Plan (see Attach a Follow-up Learning Plan).
• When using Relative Date Learning Plans with Automatic Subscription, the clock starts as soon as a user is added to the associated group.
