Access external courses

How to access external courses?

There is an excellent and diverse offer of training content on the Internet published by prestigious educational institutions. The problem is that it is difficult to centrally manage the training process that occurs outside organizational platforms.

In CLAP we have thought of an alternative to align, make visible and manage these external training processes called external courses. 

To complete an external course you must upload the evidence of the training processes you have completed as required by your organization. 

External courses can be accessed from the My content section, in virtual and external courses.
Once you enter the virtual and external courses section you will find tabs that group the contents as follows:
  1. Active: these are the external courses to complete, these may have start and end dates that are evident on the top right of the path card.
  2. Coming soon: these are the external courses to start at a later date than the current one. 
  3. Completed: these are external courses that you have already completed, whether or not they have been approved, or that have already closed or expired.
  4. Suggested: these are external courses that you have been invited to take and that you can enroll in if they are of interest to you. 

When you enter an external course you will find: 

  1. Surveys: If active, supports the collection of data or opinions from users, including their satisfaction with the learning process. It may be mandatory to download the certificate. 
  2. Forum: If active, it is used to make comments, interventions on the topics learned, questions, etc.
  3. External link: To access the course.
  4. Submit: It directs you to the page to upload the evidence needed to pass the course. 
  5. Course information: Shows information about the course publisher, duration, language, format, level and type of enrollment. 
  6. Status: Indicates the status of the course depending on whether the evidence has been uploaded and validated by the organization. 
  7. Note: Some platform administrators require the final grade obtained for the course to be entered,
  8. Validator's comment: If the evidence has been validated, the evaluator can make comments. 

To access the course select the external link option.
