Create a New Course

From the Training dashboard, click on 'Build a course'.

Give your new course a name.

In the course builder, there is a course summary on the left that gives an overview of the different sections. Use this column to add, edit and sort the course sections and to access the course settings.

Sections

Each course can be broken up into smaller sections.

Give each section a title and a short description of the learning objectives of the section.

After adding a section, select 'Add Content' to begin creating course content.

Course Content

There are three media types for course content.

1. Instructional text & images

2. Instructional videos

3. Assessments to test the instructional material.

Several subsections of any media type can be added using the 'Add Content' button. Drag and drop sections or subsections to reorder them.

Text & Images

These require a title and some text.

Text can be edited similar to a Word document.

Images can be optionally included in the text by pressing the image icon and uploading your image.

Scroll to the bottom of the text editor to save.

Should there be additional resources related to this section, these can be uploaded and made available to the worker for download and printing. Resources could include PDFs or related legislation for example.

Videos

Choose a title for the instructional video and click 'Upload a video'.

Please Note: Video files should be 720p resolution and less than 400MB in size.

Scroll down to save the uploaded video content.

As in Text & Images, additional resources can be uploaded with the video.

Assessments

Workers can be assessed on the information provided.

To create an assessment, provide:

• Assessment title
• Assessment description
• Pass mark: to indicate the minimum number of questions from this assessment the worker needs to answer to correctly in order to pass. Leave this option at "No pass mark" for now. Once you are done adding all the questions in the section below you will be able to set this value.

  • Question Title: the question that the worker needs to answer.
  • Question Guide: optional, for further details about the question.
