ILT Event - Create - Session Defaults - Additional Requirements

The Additional Requirements section of the Session Defaults page enables administrators to configure default pre-work and post-work. In addition, administrators can configure a default request form, as well as select to display the session start and end time in the user's time zone.

Design Note: An updated interface is available for this page, which can be enabled by administrators in Feature Activation Preferences. With the new design, the functionality of the page is unchanged.

Add Pre-Work

Instructors and session administrators can exempt students from pre-work from the Session Roster. See Session Roster - Exempt Users from Assignment. Note: If you have permission to restrict the Select Training pop-up for prerequisites, pre-work, and post-work, then the learning objects visible to you are dependent upon the availability set with this permission.

To add pre-work:

  1. Click the Pre-Work link.
  2. Search for training by entering a full or partial title or a keyword.
  3. Click Search.
  4. Click the Add icon to add training.
  5. Click Add.
  6. Click Done. This adds the training items to the Pre-Work field.
  7. Or, add free-form training by entering the training in the text box on the Select Training pop-up and clicking Add. This adds the free form training item to the Prerequisites field.

Note: The completion of any pending pre- or post-work will mark its associated session's completion date per the Default Session Completion Date ILT preference setting.

Once pre-work is added, the following columns appear in the Pre-Work table:

  • Req - Select this option to indicate that the training is required for the completion of the class. If a student does not complete this training, their status will be Incomplete when the session is marked complete.
  • Seq - Enter the number for the training sequence to set a required sequence for the training. This means that the training must be completed in the order that is configured. Users will not be able to request training until the training that is before it in the sequence is completed. If no numbers are entered, then students may take all the pre-work training items in any order or all at once.
