All courses within the Workhub online safety management system are customizable, meaning that an administrator can:

Workhub has created a library of over 80 courses for administrators to help train their teams. Those courses are all available within our Online Training component and can be enabled or removed as you see fit!
​
To get started, start on your Admin dash and open your Online Training component. If you've used Online Training in the past, the page will populate with all the courses you previously had active and assigned. If you haven't used Online Training before, the page will be empty of courses.
To add courses to your Course List, click the Add New button in the top right corner of the page.

​

To add Workhub courses from our course library, choose Workhub Course.

To create your own course, choose Custom Course.

If you chose Workhub courses, a pop-up will appear with the courses that aren't currently part of your Course List. Each course will contain a summary of its contents and an expandable list of available lessons. The languages available for each lesson will appear as a flag, and a star rating will be listed to the right. To include a particular course in your course list, click the radio button for that course and then click Add Course.

After choosing to add the course, the pop-up will close and you'll be navigated to a page with the lessons for your chosen course. The system will default to include all the lessons, but you can uncheck the boxes next to any of the lessons you would like to exclude from your course. When you're happy with your selections, click the Save button in the top right corner of the page.

after saving, you can click into each of the lessons to review the details for it. That will include the lesson version, the possible quiz questions, and the lesson sources.

In this screen you can select with lesson version you'd like to use. You can also choose which quiz questions will be included for your Workers to take. The selection will default to the recommended questions for the lesson version currently selected, but you can check the boxes on and off to include and exclude questions as you see fit.

​
If you choose to change your lesson version, clicking the Save button in the top right corner will give you a pop-up regarding your quiz questions. You'll be asked if you would like to keep the current question selection or if you would like to update it to the recommended questions. We advise switching to the recommended questions to ensure your questions are relevant to your version!

After choosing your lesson versions and their questions, you're ready to start assigning the course to your Workers!

We do our best to cover a broad range of subjects with our course library, but we know we don't have everything for everyone. If you have training that you would like to administer to your Workers that isn't already contained within Workhub, you can create a Custom Course! Our custom builder allows you to create a course with as many lessons as you need with training material you already have.
​
To add a new custom course, click the Add New button and choose Custom Course.

The Custom Course creation screen is pretty simple! At the top of the screen, give your new course a Title. On the right side of the page, give your course a Course Contact and a Course Description. In the Course Icon panel, you can choose to use an icon provided in the list to be shown in the course list. You can also choose a colour for it, or you can click the upload arrow to add your own image.

Once you've chosen those elements of your lesson, you can click the Save button to create the framework of your course.

After saving your course, click the Add Lesson button to get started adding the content for your course.

In the lesson creation screen, provide your lesson a Title. Using the options listed across the top of the lesson, select which format you want your data to be:

Once you have your content in place, add your Training Time in minutes in the field to the right. For the YouTube video format, the system will automatically generate that value for you based on the video data.

After adding your lesson content, you can add quiz questions for your lesson. Each created lesson will need at least one quiz question to be assigned to your Workers! Every created lesson will start with a default quiz question. You can edit that question by clicking on it in your Quiz Question list. You can also choose to add more questions by clicking the Add Question button.

In the question creation screen, you can enter your question in the Quiz Question field. You can choose an image file to go with your question by clicking into the file browser in the Attached Image box.
For every question you create you can add up to six possible answers for your Workers to choose from when completing that question. Click the Add Answer button to include another possible answer.

To change the Possible Answer, click into the text field and type your own answer in that space. Use the Mark as Correct button beneath the answer that's right. You can optionally add an explanation to go along with your correct answer that will be displayed to Workers should they get the answer incorrect.

You can also use the Attach Image button beneath each answer to include an image file as a visual aid for the answers.

When you have your question and possible answers in place, click the Save button to finalize your changes.

You can add as many questions as you like to your lesson!

If you would like to provide your workers with a handout to accompany the lesson you've created, you can do so in the Topics tab at the top of your course screen. A Topic is essentially a handout to go along with your lesson. You can upload an image file in this screen that will be placed within a PDF for your Workers to download. They'll then have the image you supply side-by-side with a space intended for notes.

Click the Add Topic button to add a new topic. In the Topic Title that appears, type a name for your desired new topic. Click the Choose File button to find your file (possible formats include .jpg, .gif, or .png). After selecting your file and providing a title, click the green checkmark icon to save your changes.

Once you have your course enabled or created, you must assign it to your Workers for it to be visible to them! There are two methods to do this: assigning one course to multiple Positions, or assigning multiple courses to one Position.

To assign a course to multiple Positions, you should start in your Course List on your Admin dash. Click into the course you want to assign, and navigate to the Assignments tab.
​

In the Assignments screen, you will see a column on the left populated by the Positions within your organization. Each line for a Position can be followed along to the right, where columns of requirement appear. For each Position, select a level of requirement for the course. The levels are:

Click the radio button for the level of requirement you want for each Position. If you want the same level of requirement for all your Positions, you can click the All option at the top of the appropriate column.

Once you've assigned it to all your positions, Save Assignments.

You can use this method if you've created a new position and don't want to go through each course individually enabling it for your newly created position.
​
Starting on your Admin dash, open your Positions & Roles component and click into the Position you want to make assignments for. Navigate to the Assignments tab, and under the Courses tab, you will see the assignment table with columns of requirement like the above example. In this case, however, the listings in the left column will be the courses that have been enabled within your account.

Set your requirement for your desired courses, and click the Save Assignments button when you're ready.

You can change the settings for an individual Online Training course (as opposed to tailoring the settings for your Online Training component as a whole) by clicking into a particular Course in your Online Training list and navigating to the Settings tab.

As outlined at the top of that screen, all courses will use the global settings as set in the Online Training settings unless changed within the particular course settings. Any changes made in the individual course settings will overrule the global defaults.
​
You can make whatever changes you deem appropriate to your course in this page, including how long a course is valid for, whether a Worker needs to review a lesson if they fail a quiz, what constitutes a passing mark, and many more! To change the setting from its global default, you can uncheck the Use Default checkbox on the right side of each setting and make your desired change.
​
When you've made any changes you'd like to see, be sure to hit Save Course Settings in the top right corner to save those changes.

Those are the basic steps in in enabling and assigning your Online Training courses .
