How to remove exempted learning path assignments

Updated this week

You can use User Management to remove exemptions from learning path assignments that were originally created through audience group rules. This is useful when a user still belongs to an audience group but no longer needs to be exempt from specific learning. For example, someone who was previously unable to complete a module, or someone on a support plan whose circumstances have changed, may now need the assignment reinstated.

This feature allows you to update exemptions at an individual assignment level without removing the user from their audience group.

How to access exemption settings

  • Open the Management Console from the top of your homepage

  • Select User Management from the right-hand-side menu

  • Search for the user whose assignments you wish to update

  • Open their account and select Exemptions from the Edit User menu

Understanding exemption options

You will see a full list of learning path assignments that can be exempted.

  • Assignments already exempted will be ticked

  • Each exemption will show the reason, who applied it, and the date it was added

How to remove an exemption

  • Untick the box next to the learning path you want to reinstate

  • Select Save exemptions

  • A success message will confirm that your changes have been applied

Once saved, the user will see the assignment appear on their homepage the next time they log in. Admins will also see the assignment return to Management Information reporting, the individual user assignments page, and the My team page.

How deadlines update after removing an exemption

When an exemption is removed, the deadline resets based on the assignment rules.
For example:
If the learning path normally has a 28‑day completion window, the user will receive a new 28‑day deadline starting from today.
