Jobs allow you to divide your learners according to their role in your organization or company. This can be helpful for enterprise eLearning, allowing you to assign courses to people in specific job positions. Jobs are a handy attribute for defining dynamic 'Audiences' (also check the article on Audiences).
Creating a new Job
To create a new job:
- Sign in as an Administrator.
- Select Jobs (1), then click Add Job (2).
- Add the new job’s name (3), set the maximum number of users allowed to have this job (4), select a Branch (5) (optional) that the job will be constrained to, and write a short Description (6).
- When ready click on Add (7).
Assign the Job to learners
Unlike Groups, when adding a learner to a job, that user will automatically be enrolled to all of the courses associated with that job.
To assign a job to a learner:
- Sign in as an administrator.
- Click Jobs (1) and select the job you want to add the learner to (2).
- Select the Users tab (3), find the learner you want to assign the job to, and set Assigned to YES (4).
Assigning a new course to a job
When adding a new course to a job, it is not directly assigned to all of the job's learners. Instead, you need to enroll the job’s learners to the newly added course manually.
To assign a new course to a job:
- Sign in as an Administrator.
- Click Jobs (1) and select the job you want to add the new course to (2).
- Select the Courses tab (3), find the new course you want to add to the job’s courses, and set Assigned to YES (4).
- Click Enroll Members to Courses (5) to confirm.
