How to Set up a Learning Path for Your Learners

The Learning Path enables you to define how a learner progresses through the courses. You can either create an Ordered learning path in which your learners take their courses in sequence or let them take the courses in No Order. Either way, they'll still have to finish all the courses included in their Learning Path.

Here is how a learning path assigned to a learner will appear to learners when they log into the ProProfs Online Classroom.
