Hidden gems for Site
Administrators in Totara Learn – 6th May at 4PM (BST)/ 10AM (CST)
Next week we’ll be looking to help Site Administrators with some of their own hidden gems. With so many configuration options available, paired with the pressures of running an organisation's Learning Management System, a Site Administrator might not always have the time to experiment with all available options within Totara Learn.
In this session, Meredith will uncover some of the features and functionality-based hidden gems available to Totara Site Administrators.
Don’t forget, if you miss a webinar you can also watch all of our webinars on-demand in the Community.
