8 Understanding Learning Module Types Prior to setting up your courses in you must first understand your learning needs, identify your content, and how your content might be structured. This information will help determine which module is needed. For instance, if the learning module is to be taken one time only and will be a web-based learning opportunity, then a Course is the optimal choice. The chart below explains each type of module available. 1. Curriculum: A collection of related learning opportunities designed to provide a thorough understanding of a concept. Upon successful completion of all courses and classes within the curriculum, the area of expertise is considered completed. It requires that course(s) and class(es) be attached to the program. The program requirement details are created at the Curriculum level and no reassignment occurs. 2. Certification: A learning objective that requires a document to prove completion. A Certification requires the module be reassigned on a set schedule and may include multiple paths. This module performs the reassignment. It requires that course(s) and class(es) be attached to the certification path. The reassignment schedule and details are created at the Certification level. 3. Course: An individual learning opportunity focusing on a single topic. Multiple classes may be offered for registration in a course. Courses are not reassigned unless they are a recurring course. Courses must include one or more classes. The requirements and details are created at the course level. 4. Class: A single offering of a learning objective that includes either web-based training, instructor-led training, blended (combination of instructor-led and web-based), or virtual. Registrations, as well as completions, are managed at the class level. a. WBT: Web-based training is content that is created and completed online. Learners have the ability to independently complete the learning objective at a time when it is most convenient for them. 5

9 b. ILT: Instructor-led training is taught in a face-to-face classroom setting with learners and instructors present. This type of session is held during standard business hours and registration is normally required. c. Blended: A multi-faceted approach where face-to-face instruction is supplemented with online materials. d. Virtual: A real-time, highly interactive environment that brings people together to share information. A: Adding Content Your first step towards creating a course is to upload your content into Learn@Work. Various types of content may be imported into the system, such as Adobe Captivate SCORM packages, videos, and photos, which will be attached to a course or class. To import content, access the Content Library following the steps outlined below. 1. From the Admin Learning page, click Manage Content in the left navigation. 2. Locate and click on the folder designated for your department or business unit. If a folder is not currently available, contact the Learning Administrator asking that one be created. 6

10 3. Click Import. 4. The content import view will load. Fill in the required fields and click Next. 7

11 a. Name: Type the name of your content using the standard naming convention of Department Acronym Title of the content. For example, if your content is a data warehouse training module, your title should be BIDW Data Warehouse. Using this naming convention will help you find your content when you need it. b. Security Domain: Click on the magnifying glass. Always select Training for this field. c. Content Format: Click the drop-down menu to view the different options. Currently we are using the File and SCORM Package options only. Select File if the content is a.pdf or Word document.

This will help you locate your content in the Content Library. g. Version Number: This field is required if you are importing a newer version of existing content. The best practice is to make the version number the date or fiscal year of import. For example, if you are importing an updated module for the current year, the version should be 2016 or h. Expiration Date: This field should only be completed if there is a firm expiration date for the content. Once the expiration date is reached, the content will no longer be available to learners in the course catalog. i. Use as Evaluation: Select this option if the module is an evaluation or test. 6. Now it is time to tell the system where your file is located. Click Choose File and locate the content you wish to upload. Click on the file then Import. 9

13 7. The file will be uploaded. You will see a message that your content has been imported successfully. You may also preview the content to see what it will look like in the content player. Editing Existing Content There may be instances where you do not have access to the original content files, but would like to edit content. Certain content can be exported, edited, and then added back into Learn@Work. To edit content, export it from the Content Library as outlined below. 10

14 1. From the Admin Learning page, click Manage Content in the left navigation. 2. There are two ways to locate content, Browse and Search. Notice the Search tab is selected by default. a.

After you have edited the content you can upload it as outlined in A. Adding Content. 12

16 Select the Module that is Right for You Creating a Certification A certification is a learning module that includes one or more courses and is assigned on a scheduled basis. The certification stores the details and timeline for the assignment and reassignment. It must have a course linked to it and include one or more paths. A path details the steps required to successfully acquire the certification. For instance, if there is an initial and refresher module required for successful certification, then Path 1 will assign the initial course and on the reassignment date, the refresher (Path 2), will be assigned. One comprehensive, printable certificate is provided as proof of completion. To learn more about how to create a certification, please refer to the Advanced Topics in Learning Administration: Curriculum and Certification User Guide located under the Learning Administrator Resources tab of learnatwork.wustl.edu/training-resources. Creating a Curriculum A curriculum is a collection of courses that must be finished successfully to complete a learning objective. Unlike certifications, they do not require reassignment and the courses are taken one time only. A curriculum must have one or more courses attached. Each course has a separate certificate available to print. To learn more about how to create a curriculum, please refer to the Advanced Topics in Learning Administration: Curriculum and Certification User Guide located under the Learning Administrator Resources tab of learnatwork.wustl.edu/training-resources. Creating a Course A course is a stand-alone learning objective designed to be completed one time only or as recurring. Recurring courses are best for compliance activities requiring completion of a single course. Courses may include one or more content modules or a combination of modules, pdf documents, tests and surveys. Each course must have an associated class attached for management of the registrations and completions. A printable certificate is available for a course as proof of completion. 13
