Course Settings

Before you assign a course, you must ensure that the course settings are correct. Our default settings work for most people, but it’s important to check these before assigning the course to make sure you don’t create more work for yourself down the road.

First, you’ll need to go to the Author section using the Application Switcher. This will show you the list of courses – you can search through for the course you want to assign, and click the title of the course.

Once you’ve clicked the name of the course, you’ll see the main course page with the settings at the top. To see all of the settings and change them, click More Settings. An illustrated guide to all of the settings is below:

  1. The Due Date is when the course will be due for your learners. You can change the number of days, or you can use the dropdown to change “within” to “on”, which will let you pick a specific date. Due dates do not impact a learner’s ability to take the course. They are just for reporting.
  2. If you set a course to Expire, then after a set period of time (that you determine), their certificate will expire. You can choose to Auto-Enroll the learner after the expiration date as well.
  3. Toggle this on to allow your learners to self re-enroll.
  4. The certificate is on by default. If for some reason you don’t want your learners to get a certificate, you can turn this off.
  5. The duration is an automatically calculated estimate of how long it takes to complete a course. You don’t need to change this unless you import something that doesn’t have the data available.
  6. You can give Continuing Education credits by turning this on. It will let you select how many credits the course is worth.
  7. You can decide how your SCORM content opens – the default is set to open in a new window.
  8. Required Score is set to 80% by default and should not be changed unless your course requires a different score.
  9. Turning on Limit Attempts will allow you to limit the amount of times a learner can fail a course. If they fail too many times, they will have to contact an Administrator to reset their progress.
  10. Handling Completed Unknown tells Bridge how to score a SCORM that shows as complete with no score.
  11. You decide how the quiz is scored – latest attempt or average attempt.
  12. This should be set at the root level so it’s best not to change this unless you have uploaded your own SCORM.

Please note: Some of these options may not be available to you depending on the type of course, or the level of access that you have.
