Navigating and Completing Learning Plans

Learn how to earch badges and certification by completing learning plans.

Introduction

A Learning Plan is an educational program composed of different courses. All of your learning plans are found on the Homepage as well as in the Catalog and My Courses and Learning Plans pages in the Academy and they are identified with the Learning Plan label on their card.

Accessing a Learning Plan

The learning plan’s card will display the number of courses composing it, the learning plan’s duration, and your progress in it. To access the learning plan, click on its card.

The learning plan’s main page shows your learning plan progress and other general information and details, such as the number of courses included in the plan and its description. If you have not yet started the learning plan, click on the description of the first course to begin your journey.

If you’ve started a course in the learning plan but have not yet completed it, press the Resume Where You Left Off button to continue the course.

The Resume Where You Left Off button is displayed only when you have a course in progress.

Some courses may be marked with a padlock to indicate that you have to complete the previous course before you can access the following one. Courses are also marked by a status icon, that is colored or grey according to the number of lessons completed.

Please note that when you are enrolled in a learning plan, you are automatically enrolled in all of the courses composing it.

Badges

Every learning plan you complete will earn you a badge in the academy. When you complete a learning plan you will see a new badge and points added to the badges and leader board section on your Homepage.
