Certification for just one course?

Certification for just one course?

Hi - We have a HIPAA eLearning course we require certain roles to complete once every two years. It's just one course. We want to send them notifications to remind them to complete. Does it makes sense to create a certification for just one course? I saw some notes about recurring courses here in the forum, so maybe that would be a better fit, but since it's a legacy feature, I'm wary. Thanks for any help you can give!

Hi Patricia,

We have corporate training that needs to be refreshed every one, two, or three years. We found it easier to set up a certification for each course, rather then try to bundle them together. We are on V18 and using centralised notifications to standardise the emails the users receive. We have a couple of "training due" notifications and a couple of "Training overdue" that are also sent to managers.

Kind regards,

Josh
