The Learning Path feature allows your organization to set a course of training involving multiple courses and PhishProof simulations (if applicable). 

This course or "path" of training can be set up in advance for months in advance or even the whole year (or more). The Learning Path creates a chain of educational milestones, and users will automatically be assigned the next milestone (course or simulation) based on the requirements you set in the Learning Path.

How to implement a Learning Path

Navigate to Learning Path sub-tab 

At the org admin level, simply navigate to the Courses Tab -> then select Learning Path. 

Add Learning Path

 Click the "Add Learning Path" button, type in a name: e.g. Main Learning Path, and click Save. 

Edit Learning Path

 Click on the "Edit" icon next to the newly added Learning Path to begin adding courses and simulations.     
Once all settings are in place and saved, we will later return to this screen to Publish the Learning Path and kick off auto-enrollments. 

Add Courses, Phishing Simulations, and Policies

 Now, lets build our learning path by adding courses, sims, or policies. In the add course dialog, courses uploaded to the Org will automatically populate in this dropdown list. You can also select a course by typing in a search query consisting of 3 or more characters. 

Simply drag each course over to its Drop Zone. You can change the order of courses and simulations with the same drag and drop method.

Org Admins can add all courses in one learning path for the whole year. Or set up multiple learning paths that automatically deploy based on Enrollment Rules. 

Add Simulations

 Lets go ahead and add our Simulations before we set enrollment rules. Click on Simulations and then drag and drop various phishing simulations into the Drop Zone.      
(Simulations can be previewed by clicking the option below the template name. This will open a preview of the template in another browser window.)

Similar to courses, Org Admins can add all simulations in one Learning Path for the whole year to automatically deploy based on Enrollment Rules. You can also change the order. 

Set Enrollment Rules

 Now, we are ready to set enrollment rules. Hover over the Start block and click on the edit icon. 

Select the enrollment rule for the initial course.     
Once the Learning Path is published, iLMS will run the automated rule sets at midnight and course enrollment emails will be sent out according to the selected rule. 

Details for the operation of each of the enrollment rule options for initiating the Learning Path are listed below. 

• Enroll on Publish Date     
  If this option is selected, users will be enrolled at midnight following publish. 
• Enroll ___ Days after Hire Date     
  This option enrolled users the specified number of days after their hire date.

• Enroll on this Day _____     
  If this option is selected, the current members of the assigned group will be enrolled on midnight of the date specified.

In the example below, we've selected the first one. Learners will be able to begin their first course the midnight after the Learning Path is published. Click Save to apply your selections. 

Now, lets set the rules for subsequent courses. Rules for subsequent enrollments do differ from those of the initial enrollment. Details for each option are listed below: 

• Enroll Immediately after Completion of Previous Course/Simulation      
  This will enroll a user at midnight following their completion of the previous course or simulation.     
  Note: If the user does not complete the previously assigned course, they will not be enrolled in the next one until completion has been met. 
• Enroll ___ Days after Completion of the Previous Course/Simulation     
   This will enroll a user based a number of days specified after completing the previous course/simulation. Note:If the user does not complete the previously assigned course, they will not be enrolled in the next one until completion has been met. 
• Enroll in Regular Intervals of ___ Days      
  This option will enroll the user(s) in a course/simulation in regular intervals of days specified regardless of completion.     
  This is the recommended option.     
  We recommend having learners take courses/simulations once every month to keep security concepts fresh and forefront in mind. So we will set them at 30-day intervals. Hover over the second course or simulation and click the edit icon. Select the third option and enter the number of days. Check the box to apply this rule to all courses and simulations in this Learning Path. Click Save to apply your selections. 
• Apply to All Course/Simulations      
  This checkbox will use the same settings for all other courses/simulations (aside from the initial)

Add Groups for Assignment

Learning Path Enrollments are by groups only. So, be sure to set up groups before publishing your Learning Path. 

Click the Add Groups button to open the dialog. Click the double arrow to assign all groups or simply select applicable groups and shuffle them to the assigned groups bucket. Don't forget to save your settings by clicking the green check-mark.

Once your groups have been added, there is one final step to complete your Learning Path and enable automatic enrollments. Click the Back button to return to the main Learning Path screen. 

Publish Learning Path

Lastly, confirm that the number of courses/simulations and groups match your selections. If your enrollment rules are set and there are no more changes, go ahead and click on the Publish icon. Your Learning Path will be published at midnight and the learners will receive course/simulation enrollment emails according to your selected rule sets. 

Click OK to proceed. 

You will receive a success message. And, the Learning Path will have a green check under the Publish column. If there is an error, please contact your Account Manager. 

And there you have it, Learning Paths courses and assignment to groups in a nutshell.

Individual user by Profile allows you to enroll users into courses or curricula individually using the find users feature. 

When there is a need to enroll one user into some training as a single occurrence, this can be done via the user's profile. To access a user's profile, you can usually click on their name in any user list in iLMS.     
To learn more about the user profile see the following: User Profile and Transcript

The last tab of the user profile will list all available courses in the iLMS. Courses in which the user is already enrolled will be checked, bolded, and will have the Enrollment Path (method by which they were enrolled) listed.

Self-enrollment allows users to enroll themselves in courses or curricula.

If your organization would like to grant users the option to enroll themselves in training from a catalog, the iLMS does offer self-enrollment. 

To set up the ability for users to self-enroll there are a couple things that must be put in place. 

• First, the Course Catalog must be enabled for view in the Learner Center 
• Second, the course(s) must be set to visible in the Learner Center Catalog, and open-enrollment will need to be enabled for the course. 

Enabling Course Catalog in Learner Center
