How to set up online training courses
Giving an online training with our course builder is an easy way to motivate your employees. It’s not only an easy tool for the participants, but also for the course creator. The creator of the course is able to keep track of his or her employees. This gives the creator an immediate insight into any gaps in knowledge. And there’s much more!
Now, we will dive deeper into creating your first online training course. Let’s go! Building courses with our online course builder has never been easier! You can focus only on the content. There's no need to worry about design, layout or fonts, colors etc. Our designers take care of that part for you!
To Start Off..
Introducing
First things first, that is, introducing the course to the participants. You can write down what kind of expectations they could have of your course and wish them good luck :)
Offer text, audio or video
You can offer them some text, show a video, or listen to some audio. After that, you can practice some questions with them. You can add multiple choice questions, image questions or a question with audio or video. It’s all up to you!
Practice Questions
After that you can even add more practice questions, more text or add an exam. It’s even possible to add an assessment, which is a tool to get to know your students on other areas. For example the way they work in a group; are the group workers, leaders, creative workers, etc. This helps with dividing your employees into different project groups.
The last page will be ‘the end page’. This is the last page of your course. Time to say goodbye and convince them to take another course.
Settings
In the settings, you will find a few pretty high-tech settings. You can set how many attempts participants have to do the course. You can set a timer and configure your terms and conditions that apply before playing the course.
Results & Stats
With the results and stats it’s possible to track progress of your participants. You are able to view the results per user and with that get an overhaul overview of the progress. It’s easy to export your results to an Excel-sheet.
User Management
As a creator of a course, you can ask participants to login. You can invite them, for example, by email. Participants will receive an invitation in which they are able to find their username and password to login. It’s also possible to make your course free for everyone to use.
Publish & Share
There are different ways to publish and share your course. First, you can share via URL, use CRM integration, embed code (which also include legacy and responsive embed code) or download a SCORM file (Beta testing only).
Integrations
It’s possible to integrate your system to ours. We have a few different types of LMS integrations: Webhook, Mailchimp and AWeber. To dive deeper into integrations, you will have to read this article. If you need a custom integration with Navision, Dynamics, SAP or another CRM. Let us know!
Certificate
You can send your participants a certificate for passing their online training course. This certificate will be sent automatically when participants pass the course. This is especially easy with an online training, because everything is online and there's no need to hand out the certificates.
