Introduction
Catalog and course admins can reset learners' progress by either forcing a retake of a course or training plan from the LMS365 Admin Center, or enabling learners to decide themselves if they'd like to retake a course or training plan via the Voluntary Retake option.
The Voluntary Retake option enables learners to retake training to refresh their knowledge, improve their score, and update certificates and skills, etc.
This guide provides information about the retake option, how admins can initiate a retake for a course or training plan, and how learners can retake training when the Voluntary Retake option is enabled.
NOTE
- When learners retake a course, their progress is reset, and their course status is set to Not started. Their progress for all learning items of the course is also reset, and this will be reflected in the catalog reports.
- When learners retake a training plan, their progress is reset, and their training plan status is set to Not started. Their progress for the training plan and all of its courses is also reset, and this will be reflected in the catalog reports.
Users can review the content of courses and training plans in which they're enrolled at any time, even if the retake option is disabled.
