Assigning content directly from a Content Profile or Learning Initiative Profile allows administrators to deliver targeted learning to individuals, specific audiences, or entire organizations in just a few clicks.
Direct Assignment Options
You can launch an assignment workflow from two distinct profile locations depending on your focus:
- Content Profile: Use this when you are looking at a specific piece of learning (such as a video, course, or document) and want to push it out to learners.
- Learning Initiative Profile: Use this when you are managing a structured program, curriculum, or multi-item learning path and want to assign the entire initiative.
How to Assign Content
Follow these steps to create an assignment from either profile view:
- Navigate to the Profile
- Go to Content or Learning Initiatives from the admin navigation menu.
- Search for and select the specific content item or learning initiative to open its profile page.
- Initiate the Assignment
- On the profile page, locate and click the Assign tab, followed by Assign.
- Select Your Learners
- Choose who should receive the assignment:
- Individual Users: Search and select specific employees.
- Teams/Audiences: Select pre-defined groups based on job roles, departments, locations, or custom attributes.
- Organization-Wide: Select all active learners (if applicable for your permission level).
- Configure Assignment Settings
- Due Date: Set a fixed due date or a relative due date (e.g., 30 days from assignment date).
- Review and Confirm
- Double-check your learner selection and settings in the summary panel.
- Click Submit or Confirm Assignment to distribute the content.
Tip: If you need to automate recurring assignments for new hires or changing roles, consider adding the initiative to an automated workflow rather than running a one-time direct assignment.
