As an Award LMS administrator, you’ll be responsible for managing the Award’s WordPress-based learning platform LearnDash (the LMS). In this course, the second in the Award LMS Admin training series, you will go through the specifics of building and managing a course for the Award.
In Course 1 you learnt how the two main ‘tools’ used on the Award LMS platform work. Refer back to that course if you are not sure about the basics.
You have six months (180 days) from your date of enrollment to complete this course. The course will no longer be available to you after that period.
You can request an extension or renew you subscription to the course if you need more time.
Course objectives
This course equips you with essential skills for creating courses in the LearnDash (the LMS) environment.
You’ll also learn, or review, the current Award course creation workflow, common Award course settings, and see how courses can be cloned and re-ordered for the front-end grid display.
Learning outcomes
You’ll gain confidence in performing key course development and management tasks while understanding how to troubleshoot basic issues and escalate technical issues to your Award support desk, team or the support team at AHM.
You can practice course creation skills on either or both of the two following sites: The Kapazitee Training sandbox site (buttons will appear at various stages of the course to link you to this site), or the Award development website. For this course, the Award specific course development and management tasks are best practiced on the Award development site.
Avoid using the Award production site for practice!
Although there are no completion or course requirements set for Award LMS Admin trainees, marking each lesson and topic as complete will help you keep track of what you have already reviewed.
Make sure you mark all lessons as ‘complete‘ when you have finished them. Even the ones you skip through because you are already familiar with the concepts.
At the end of each course there is a knowledge check. This is purely for you own use and not a requirement of the course or series. If you don’t want to do it just mark that section as complete as well.
Marking lessons and sections as ‘complete‘ will provide your with you own progress reports as you go through the series and enable you to keep track of your last completed section.
