How to Prevent Learners From Skipping Course Pages
As a course instructor, you can prevent learners from skipping essential sections of your course by setting a minimum page activity time on course pages, videos, and other critical information before they proceed to the next page. It will ensure your learners completely understand your course and that there are no knowledge gaps.
Additionally, you can fix the minimum time learners will have to spend on your course before they can proceed to the course completion page.
Let’s say you’ve set a time limit for learners on a page. If a learner tries to go to the next page too soon, the system will show a message.
Benefits of preventing learners from skipping course content:
- Train without worrying about knowledge gaps
- Meet compliance requirements
