Take a course and get your certificate

Courses holds the training your district and your agency publish for you: videos, readings, quizzes and assignments, in order. Finish every lesson and you get a certificate to print.

To open it:

1. In the rail, open Workspace.
2. Under Learning, press Courses.

The card at the top picks up where you left off, under Continue learning, or offers the next course under Start here. With more than one course, each is listed under it, with how far you’ve got.

Work through a course

To take one:

1. Press Start or Continue on the card, or press a course.
2. Read or watch the lesson.
3. Press Mark done and continue to go to the next one.

An uploaded, YouTube or Vimeo video you play to the end marks itself done. For any other video, press Mark done and continue. Pressed it by mistake? Mark not done undoes it on a video or a reading.

On a phone the course opens on its list of lessons, and the big button under the title starts the next one. On a computer it opens on the lesson where you left off.

A lesson may stay shut for a while. Finish the lesson before this one means the course is meant to be taken in order. Opens and a date means its module opens a set number of days after you started the course.

Pass a quiz

Answer every question, then press Submit answers. You need 80% to pass unless whoever built the course set another mark, and you can try as many times as you like.

A pass reads Passed with your score and marks the lesson done. Below the mark you see Not yet, and Try again clears the answers for another go. The right answers and why they’re right show once you’ve passed.

Whoever builds your courses can also play a quiz with the whole room. Press Live quiz at the top of Courses and type their code to join a live quiz.

Hand in an assignment

Write under Your answer, add a link, or press Attach a file, then press Hand in. A file can be up to 50 MB; share a link to anything bigger.

Most assignments go to whoever built the course, and read Waiting for review until they answer. Your bell tells you when they approve it or ask for changes. With Changes asked for, read the feedback, fix your answer in the form under it and press Hand in again. While it’s still Waiting for review, Edit what I handed in lets you change it. Some assignments mark themselves done as soon as you hand them in.

Get your certificate
