Course Events deliver course and lesson material to VISION Learning Station users.
Some users need to schedule course events in the future, long before the course's content is complete. To facilitate this process, VISION will automatically move all of the learners who have not completed a course event to the new version of the course event when you create it.
If you need to reschedule learners to a course that they have already taken, you will find those learners in the "Other Enrollment" tab of the Assign Learners page.
There are several different ways to assign learners to course events. Select the one that is best for the course you are creating:
•Assign learners through the Course Event (Steps to Create a Course Event).
•Assign a course event to an organization or job position's learners (Add a Course to a Job Position).
•Import a spreadsheet of learners to the course event (Import Learners to a Course Event).
•Allow Learners to Self-Register to the course event by selecting the "Allow student self registration?" feature when creating the course event.
The following list of steps will show you how to create a course event:
1.Click on Administration on the Main Menu.
2.Click on the Courses tab. This is the default tab when entering the Administration area.
3.Click on the link for the appropriate course to view its properties page.
4.Click on the Active Events tab and click on the Add Event button.
5.Fill out the Course Event data, as defined below in "Course Event Properties".
6.Click the Add Course Event button.
7.Choose whether to add personnel in the organization to this event, then click the Proceed button. You can do this at a later time on the Learners tab of the course event's Properties. Note that assigning learners to a course event will cause them to be sent a notification email regardless of whether the course event is approved.
▪All assigned to position: This will schedule all learners assigned to the job position (whether or not they are marked "in job").
▪Assign to Job Position but NOT in job: Schedule all learners except those marked "in job".
▪Currently marked in job: Schedule only those learners marked "in job".
▪None: Do not assign any learners to this course event right now.
8.The course event properties page will open.
