By default, users with an assigned seat under your Organization’s subscription plan have access to all available courses—and they can complete them in any order.

If you want to limit access and guide users through a specific course or set of courses, you’ll need to create a Learning Path.

What is a Learning Path?

A Learning Path lets you control which courses your users can access and complete. It’s ideal for structuring training based on roles, departments, or development phases.

Why Use a Learning Path?

  • Restrict access to only the courses relevant to each user or group

  • Ensure learners follow a specific training sequence

  • Make onboarding and upskilling more focused and efficient

How to Create a Learning Path

  1. View your Organization.

  2. Click on the Learning Paths tab, then click the green "Create Learning Path+" button

  3. Follow the step-by-step prompts to:

    1. Add a title (this is visible to you and the assigned users)

    2. Add a description (optional, but provides context to you and the assigned users)

    3. Check the "Take courses in order" box if you want to require your users to follow the order you arrange.

    4. Select courses to include in the path in the left column and arrange their order in the right column.

  4. Click the green "Create Learning Path+" button in the bottom right corner.

How to Assign Users to a Learning Path

Option 1: Assign by User

  1. Go to the Learning Paths tab in your Organization view.

  2. Click the Learning Path you want to Manage.

  3. Click the Users tab, then the "Assign User+" button

  4. Search or scroll to find the user(s) you’d like to assign.

  5. Check the box next to their name(s) and click "Assign+".

This method is useful when assigning users individually, regardless of their Team.

Option 2: Assign by Team

  1. Go to the Learning Paths tab in your Organization view.

  2. Click the Learning Path you want to Manage.

  3. Click the Teams tab, then the "Assign Teams+" button

  4. Search or scroll to find the teams(s) you’d like to assign.

  5. Check the box next to each team and click "Assign+".

All users in the selected Team(s) will automatically be assigned to the Learning Path.

Once a user is assigned to a Learning Path, their dashboard (shown when they first log in) will show the Learning Path and course(s) they're assigned to. If they attempt to access a course outside of their assigned Learning Path (via the Courses tab), they'll be shown a modal stating that they don't have access.
