While BizClassroom is ideal for hosting training sessions, we recognize some instructor-led training sessions do not require a set session date or require learners to self-enroll. For example, this method could be leveraged for new hire benefits meetings or on-the-job training tracking.
Setting up your Classroom Session:
Administrators will begin by creating a classroom (or find an existing classroom) in your custom library. You can do this by navigating to the admin side of the platform and selecting Learning > Libraries. Select your custom library.
*Please note, in order to create a classroom, administrators will need content privileges enabled.
- To make a new Classroom, select Add Content > Classroom, then fill out the course details.
Assigning your Classroom Session
Since learners will not be self-enrolling, it is not necessary to create events and schedules. As a next step, we can assign the Classroom shell to learners who should be attending this instructor-led training. We will use these assignments to take attendance at a later time and report on learners that did/did not attend the class.
- Select Administration from the main menu.
- Select Learning and then Libraries from the admin menu.
- Select the appropriate library.
- Search for and select the Classroom you wish to assign.
- Navigate to the Assignments tab.
- If assigning to individual learners, select Learners in the left corner located under ‘Details’; If assigning to entire teams, select Teams in the left corner located under 'Details’.
- Select Assign Content and select all applicable learners or teams. Enter a due date (we recommend adding the date of the live training session)
- Save the assignment.
Please note learners may receive an assignment notification if automated messages are active. We recommend communicating the live training to learners ahead of time.
Managing Classroom Attendance
Once the session concludes, there are two ways that learner status can be managed:
- Administrators can navigate to Classroom Profile > Status tab > and update status from there.
- Attendance can also be uploaded through Data Services by filling out the Learner Content Status import template.
