Upgrade Child LOs

Prior to this enhancement, when versioning a curriculum with the Maintain Progress option, child training items with a sequence of 1 within the curriculum structure were upgraded to new versions (if available) when the parent curriculum was versioned. Child training items that were in sequence 2 or greater were auto-completed with the previous version upon activation if the previous version was completed.

With this enhancement, if a newer version of child training exists, the user will be upgraded to the new version instead of retaining the progress from a prior version, regardless of the child training item's sequence. When the option to maintain progress when versioning a curriculum is selected, users maintain completions for child training items that do not have a newer version available. Child training items that have newer versions will be upgraded when they are assigned the new curriculum version.

Example

  1. Sue has Curriculum V1 on her Completed transcript.
  2. Curriculum V1 contains both Material A V1 (sequence 1) in a Completed status and Material B V1 (sequence 2) in a Completed status.
  3. Material A V1 is versioned to Material A V2, but Sue does not receive the upgraded version because the Completed status was not selected by the administrator during versioning.
  4. Material B V1 is versioned to Material B V2, but Sue does not receive the upgraded version because the Completed status was not selected by the administrator during versioning.
  5. Curriculum is now V3 because two child training items within the curriculum were versioned.
  6. The administrator adds Online Course V1 (sequence 3) to the curriculum, and Curriculum V3 is versioned to V4 because of this addition. The versioning options selected include: All Versions, All Statuses, and Maintain Progress.
  7. Sue receives Curriculum V4 with Material A V2 in a Registered status, with Material B V2 in a Pending Prior Training status, and Online Course V1 in a Pending Prior Training status.
  8. With this enhancement, once Sue completes Material A V2, Material B V2 is in Registered status.

Considerations

  • If the administrator selected that Material A V2 requires retraining (from Material A V1), the user will receive the new version because it requires retraining. Thus, the user will be in a Registered status for Material A V2.
  • If Material A V2 is set as equivalent to Material A V1, then once the user is upgraded to V2, they will auto-complete to a Completed Equivalent status.
