Learner’s Frequently Asked Questions

Why aren’t the pages I have visited being tracked?

We have never tracked pages visited because of our philosophy of how adults learn. Many people who take our training are using it as a refresher or are already using some of the concepts presented in the course in their jobs. We don’t believe that learners should have to go through the basics of concepts they are already comfortable with. Adult learners will seek to learn information they need to perform a task. In our mind, this is a strong benefit of online learning vs. classroom training. In the classroom, everyone must go through every concept as a group; whether some of them have prior knowledge or not.

For this reason, learners are not required to go through every page of every lesson. So, content modules are only marked as complete if the learner gets to the end of the module and either exits from that page or clicks on the button “Exit and Mark as Complete.”

However, Challenges MUST be successfully completed in order for a course to be considered complete.

I don’t see the left-hand menu

Depending on your screen size (for example if you are using an iPad), the left-hand menu may not be displayed. It is easy to display the menu by clicking on the “hamburger” icon in the upper left-hand corner of the screen.

The menu will now display and you can select items from it.

Once you have selected a menu item, the menu will minimize again and to show the menu again you will need to click on the “hamburger” again.

I am having trouble logging in

  • If you still are not successful, you can click the link below the login button to retrieve your username and/or password.
  • If you still are not successful, contact us.

Can I print out the training?

Because the training is interactive many of the pages can’t stand on their own and need the context of previous and subsequent pages or the depth of pop-ups and other functionality on the page that can’t be printed out. Some of the pages can be printed.  If it is a page that we feel can stand alone (for example a list or summary or a clear graphic) you should be able to print it using the print icon in the right hand navigation panel (above the < and > buttons).

More important, each course has a PDF Reference Guide (or a PDF Quick Guide for our shorter courses)  that summarizes the key points in each lesson.  In addition, in the appendix you will find tables, worksheets and other reference material pertinent to the course as well as a glossary of terms.  To access the Reference Guide, go to your training records and select the course you are working on.  On the screen that shows all of the modules for the course, the last items will be the Reference Guide.  After it is opened in your web browser you can print it out, read it online or save it to your computer for your personal use.

Do you provide a certificate once the training is completed?

Yes! Once you have successfully completed a course, you will see a link for the course certificate in your records.

 

You may print out the certificate or save it as a PDF.

What if the training can’t be completed in one sitting?

We usually recommend that learners spend no more than 45 to 60 minutes at a time on our courses. When learners are done with the training for that period of time, a bookmark will be set on the screen they are on and they will be taken back to that location the next time they access that module.
