What is a group?
A Group is a method of grouping users by Team or Topic to deliver learning programs to a cohort of users.
Groups are the preferred way to deliver programs of learning to many users, over Awards
Groups can be public or private
Groups can be restricted to ensure users cannot leave and miss assigned learning
Groups have a discussion board which can be enabled or disabled
How to get the most out of Groups
Simplify onboarding
Save time by bulk-adding users to Groups from User Management page
Assign learning with relative due dates to provide a streamlined onboarding experience for new users
Encourage peer-to-peer learning and discussion in user groups
'Groups' fosters discussion between peers, in threads, that all group users can access.
This promotes peer to peer learning and supports the transfer of organizational knowledge across departments.
This feature can be switched off if it isn’t relevant to your organisation.
Maintain privacy, with the option to make groups public
Groups can be kept private, so discussion is only accessible to group users.
If you prefer to have full transparency, Groups can be made public with ease.
Learners cannot see email addresses of other Learners within Groups, to maintain user privacy. Admins and Content Admins can still Learner email addresses.
