Learning Admin Console - Create Learning Objects

The Learning Admin Console allows administrators to create several different types of learning objects (LOs) and create learning assignments from one central location. Using the Create button in the upper-right hand corner of the console, administrators with the appropriate permissions can create the following:

  • Certifications
  • Curricula
  • Events
  • Libraries
  • Materials
  • Online Courses
  • Programs
  • Learning Assignments
  • Tests
  • Videos
PERMISSION NAME PERMISSION DESCRIPTION CATEGORY
Certification - Manage Grants administrators ability to manage certifications. This permission can be constrained by OU and User's OU. This is an administrator permission. Learning - Administration
Course Catalog - Update

Grants ability to manage and edit training items listed in the Course Catalog and also grants access to the Course Console, where training can also be managed and edited. This permission also grants access to the Popular Requests and Highest Rated widgets on the Learning Admin Console (in conjunction with the Learning Admin Console - View permission). This permission also allows administrators to reversion online courses via the Course Console page. This permission also allows administrators to access an Edit Training option for training items included as objectives in Development plans.

This permission can be constrained by OU, User's OU, Training Type, Training Item, Provider, ILT Provider, User's ILT Provider, User, User Self and Subordinates, and User's LO Availability. This is an administrator permission.

Note: Adding an OU constraint and a provider constraint to this permission results in an "AND" statement.

Learning - Administration
Course Catalog - View

Grants access to view the learning objects in the course catalog and enables administrators to view the Course Console and the Popular Requests and Highest Rated widgets on the Learning Admin Console (in conjunction with the Learning Admin Console - View permission). This permission can be constrained by OU, User's OU, Training Type, Training Item, Provider, ILT Provider, User's ILT Provider, and User's LO Availability. This is an administrator permission.

Adding an OU constraint and a provider constraint to this permission results in an "AND" statement.

Course Publisher

Grants access to LCMS Course Publisher, which enables upload and publishing of SCORM and AICC compliant online courses, created either in the LCMS Course Builder, or from a third party course building tool. Administrators must also be granted a content license from the Manage Licenses page. This is an administrator permission.

After Content Publisher is activated in the system, users with this permission are automatically granted the permissions to upload and publish online classes via the Content Publisher, and also the permission to view the Upload History page.

 Learning - Administration
Curricula Admin - Manage

Grants ability to create new and edit/update existing curricula. This permission can be constrained by OU, User's OU, Provider, and User's LO Availability. This is an administrator permission.

Adding an OU constraint and a provider constraint to this permission results in an "AND" statement.

Tip: Do not constrain this permission to your entire corporation; it can cause long page load times and timeout errors. Applying this constraint is functionally the same as leaving the permission unconstrained, but omitting this constraint does not cause the system to do the unnecessary constraint checks as in the former scenario.

Create Object

To create an LO or run a learning assignment from the Learning Admin Console, click the Create button and select Assignment or the training item you want to create. You are navigated to the first step of the process for creating the item you have chosen (For example, if you select to create a learning assignment, you will be navigated to the first step of creating a learning assignment, which is the Setup page).

Clicking Cancel, Save, or Submit during the LO or learning assignment creation process redirects the administrator back to the Learning Admin Console.

Note: The existing permissions for each system area control the visibility of each option in the Create drop-down menu. Available options display alphabetically. If the administrator does not have permissions to create an LO or learning assignments, the Create button does not display on the Learning Admin Console.
