Class type and timetable

The class timetable is where you set up the class type (timetabled, self-paced or hybrid) which is how a class is delivered.

  • Timetabled - These are standard classes that are made of one or more sessions.

  • Self-paced - These are classes that have no scheduled timetable, but rather a set time to completion.

  • Hybrid - Allows for a combination of timetabled sessions and self-paced study. Students are required to attend a minimum number of sessions to be considered 'completed'.

For a self-paced class, ensure the 'self-paced' switch is turned on within this section, then save and close the record. For Hybrid classes, make sure the 'Is Hybrid' switch is turned on and that you set a minimum number of sessions for completion as well as set up at least the same number of sessions.

For a class with timetabled sessions you’ll need to create each session. Sessions have their own start and end time, tutors, sites and rooms. Tutors assigned to sessions can each have their own rostered hours, separate of the session.

For classes with lots of sessions, create one and then duplicate the rest from that initial session.
