Assignments

Assignments connect learners to courses. When a trainer assigns a course, the learner sees it in their portal and can launch the simulation.

Accessible to: Trainers, Workspace Owners, Admins

Assignments page

Navigate to Assignments in the sidebar to view all assignments in the workspace.

The assignment table shows:

Column Description
Learner Assigned learner's name (or group name for group assignments)
Course Name of the assigned course
Status assigned, in_progress, completed, abandoned
Progress Visual progress bar
Score Overall score (once completed)
Actions Launch, resume, view results, or delete

Use the search bar to find assignments by learner name.

Creating an assignment

  1. Click Assign Learner in the top-right corner
  2. Select a course from the dropdown (only published versions appear)
  3. Choose an assignment mode:

Select a single learner from the dropdown. One assignment is created.

Select a group from the dropdown. One assignment is created for every member of the group.

  1. Optionally set a due date
  2. Click Assign

Group assignments

Assigning to a group creates individual assignments for each group member at the time of assignment. Members added to the group later will not automatically receive the assignment.

Duplicate prevention

You cannot assign the same course to a user who already has an active assignment for it. If you assign a group and some members already have the assignment, only new members will receive it.

Assignment statuses

Status Meaning
assigned Learner has been assigned but hasn't started
in_progress Learner has launched at least one session
completed Learner has completed and been scored
abandoned Assignment was abandoned

Launching simulations

Only the assigned learner can see the Launch and Resume buttons for their assignment. Workspace owners and trainers managing the assignment list cannot launch simulations on behalf of other users.

Managing assignments

Moving a learner onto a newer version

Published course versions are locked — if you've assigned a learner version 1 of a course and later publish version 2, the learner keeps seeing version 1. To switch them onto the newest published version:

  • Open the Dashboard and use the Course Updates Available panel to pick off affected learners one at a time, or move everyone in one go with Switch all.
  • Or, from the learner's own Pending Assignments list, click the new-version indicator on the row to upgrade that assignment in place.

Completed assignments are never switched — their record stays on the version they finished.

See Course Management for the full walkthrough.

Deleting assignments

Workspace Owners and Trainers can delete assignments:

  1. Click the trash icon (🗑️) next to any assignment
  2. A confirmation dialog will appear showing what will be deleted
  3. Click Delete to confirm

Destructive action

Deleting an assignment permanently removes the assignment and all associated session data. This cannot be undone.

Bulk deletion

To delete multiple assignments at once:

  1. Use the checkboxes on the left side of each assignment row to select items
  2. A red Delete (N) button appears in the toolbar showing the count
  3. Click it to open the confirmation dialog
  4. Confirm to delete all selected assignments
