Note: A Learning Plan is a helpful tool to use for planning and tracking your training activities. A Learning Plan is a list of training activities assigned to specific individuals (or groups), that needs to be completed within a set time frame. There are several types of Learning Plans, this article discusses Repeating Relative Date Learning Plans, which repeats on a defined cycle based on each user's completion date. To see more about Learning Plan types, view Manager: Activities > Learning Plan Options.
