I am wondering if anyone has any alternatives to adding a link to the URL for an externally provided course on a website?
Totara Learn Open Discussions
Alternative to external link to course
Hi Sarah
What sort of external course is it -is it a Moodle, Linkedin, SCORM or Totara course ?
Do you need to login to the external course - are you wanting to pass the grade back to Totara?
regards
Thanks for your reply Craig. Just a link to an externally provided elearning coruse e.g. NPS Medicinewise.
Hi Sarah
Adding a label with a hyperlink link and maybe some embedded content, activity completion conditions, access restriction provides a bit more flexibility.
Can you describe in more the problem you are trying to solve by not including a link to the external course?
Regards
The external tool looks useful however it requires LTI and I note none of the external training we link to have this. Looking for a way to integrate the learning with the LMS so it recognises completion.
Hey Sarah
Something like LTI or external SCORM is going to allow to recognise completion.
If that is a separate training that doesn't have an integration, then I don't think it's possible.
I think we've had to set up external link with manual completion for learners in the past (but that was not a high-stakes training, so learners manually marking they completed was viable)
