To assign e-learning, a survey or a declaration to users, it must be added to a Learning Path. A Learning Path is a type of container that can hold one or more activities, such as e-learning, policy, offline activity and more.

An e-learning activity can be created by Skillcast, or you can upload a third-party SCORM or AICC content package.

1. Select Management Console > Content Management

2. Either search for the existing Learning Path or select Add a new learning path:


3. When you've found or added the Learning Path, select Edit content in the sidebar and select E-learning under Add a new activity:

4. Enter the details and select Add to create the e-learning activity
