Overview: As a training manager, you want to be able to make use of classification, so that you can organise external training and make it easier to assign.
Start from: The Flow Learning Dashboard.
Classification of external training
This is where you can create categories for your training records, helping you to keep everything organised. You can think of it as folders. This also allows you to attach colour codes to the different categories to enhance quick visual categories when you navigate the training calendar.
- Select Learning & Development > L&D Settings from the main menu.
- Select Classification of external training from the configure screen.
- Select Add.
- Enter a name into the name field (e.g., Induction or Management).
- Select a HEX colour. When you select the coloured area a colour chooser pop-up will appear. Use the slider to select different colours. Select the dropper then move the circle around to choose a shade you like. OR you can enter the RGB, HSL, HEX code value if you already know it.
- Select Save. The new classification will show in the list and you will be able to categorise your external training.
Once you have created your external training and have set a classification, you are ready to assign it to learners on the system. See Assign External Training for more information on how to do this.
