Are you using on demand labs? Need Recommendations

Wanted to put the call out to the community to see if anyone else was using third party companies for on-demand labs?Use Case: We are a software company, and we would like to host sandbox versions of our products, and allow our learners to access these sandbox areas so they can practice with our products.  Ideally, these would be labs that can be accessed from an e-learning course, so that there is no manual set up of a lab for each individual learner.Has anyone successfully accomplished this? We have been looking at Ready tech and Strigo, but if there are other providers out there that you have all had success with, I would love to hear about it!

How to make announcements in Learn?

Greetings!Hoping to get some ideas on how folks have gone about making announcements on their Learn site. For example, if you had an upcoming user group, how would you use Learn to promote it?

Leaderboard by Branch

Hello, We are coming close to our annual trainings for the entire company and I hit a roadblock when setting up badges, leaderboard, and contest because I do not see any option to show by branches instead of individually. Is there an option using these three options to show which Branch completed all their Annual trainings first, second, third, etc. Thank you!

Fast forward until last point watched in a video? Authoring tools or video player

I posted an idea for the course player here, but am looking for a solution in the meantime.We’re looking for a way to allow learners to fast forward only up to the last point they've viewed in a video. This would let them rewind during their first viewing to review any sections they may not have fully understood, but prevent them from skipping ahead through the entire video.Once they’ve watched the full video, they should be able to navigate freely, especially for review purposes after completing the video or course.This isn’t supported by Docebo’s new course player, but we've seen it’s possible in Flowsparks authoring tools. We’ve also heard it’s not possible in Articulate.Questions to the community1) Any suggestions on how to implement this functionality?2) Any other tools that support it?3) Any experience/feedback on Flowsparks?​​​

Getting Details in Reporting - X completions of a course per branch

Hi all, I have a very specific ask from my director for reporting on a course and I’m trying to figure out how to deliver it.We have a certification course where we need to see how many users at a property (we are a hotel brand) have completed it. The goal is 3+, but I also need to show which have just 2 people, and which only 1. We are trying to demonstrate ROI for our training. I can of course run a completion report for the course and get a full list of users who have completed the certification. But the only way I’ve found to get more detail than that is to manually sort in Excel and color the cells and then sort by color, which takes forever. I’m going to have to produce this data monthly so I need something more automated. Do I need to figure out some Excel magic formula for this task, or is there some way in Docebo of doing this? I’m not a programmer and wouldn’t know how to, for example, dig into the API browser and write up something to parse the data the way I need (X users w

Hybrid event tools

Can anyone share their recommendations for (or against) hybrid meeting hardware? We’re going to be setting up the ability for hybrid learning events for the first time and need to shop around to find the right technology. I’ve used the meeting owl in previous jobs, but am looking to learn more about what’s out there. What’s worked for you? What hasn’t? We have ~40 employees with the majority of them being office-based. We’d like to create a more collaborative experience for hybrid meetings/trainings where everyone can both contribute and easily hear the in-person presenters. Some of our employees have laptops they can bring to a meeting location, while others are working on desktops so they’d either need to be isolated at their desk, or have a good community setup to contribute and have easy access to the content shared regardless of whether the presenter is in person or virtual. Eventually we may use this for customers as well, in which the majority of attendees would be virtual. I ha

Feedback about Custom Leaderboards

Hello Everyone! Our LMS team creates custom course completion Leaderboards on Canva. Does anyone use a 3rd party source to generate Leaderboards instead of using the Leaderboard feature within Docebo? We manually create our leaderboards, as it is more interactive than the generated Leaderboard within Docebo. Please let me know if anyone can recommend any custom Leaderboard generators.Thank you all in advance.

An audit field - looking for best practices

A general question - we are being mandated to track the why “a something happened” inside of the learning system. We supplied an audit (from the audit trail) from the learning system, but it is not something that is part of a learners profile and may be missed as part of other audits. Other systems that we have worked with in the past support adding a note to a persons profile as a type of light learning object. It was meant to not burden the administrator with needing to keep adding an additional field to reporting but was something that could be recalled on a user level - where this will probably be used the most - and not as part of their user data.In light of that learning object not really being available, I know I am talking myself into adding a field.Just checking - has anyone gone down this path? How did you implement????

Policy Attestations - Are you doing them? How?

Hey everyone, I’ve seen some talk about this in previous posts and would like to bring it up again to determine whether you’ve found a workable way for Docebo to accomplish policy attestations or have found an alternative tool for this purpose. In previous posts I saw a suggestion to use a single question test with one right answer which is quick and easy but unlikely to be useful from a legal perspective. This is our current setup and the legal weakness is why I’m on the hunt for a better solution. I have also looked into the e-signature option and while it seems a bit better it still doesn’t satisfy the need to produce a document with the attestation and some kind of signature on it. Another option and one I like the least is having manual submissions on these where a person verifies a signature and marks a person complete because this will be an enormous time sink for new and annually refreshed policies. At this point I don’t think I can give legal what they want with the LMS and gi

SCORM Mystery - Articulate Rise / Storyline 360 resolved

For folks that went to Inspire 2023 there was a session about SCORM, xAPI and Content practices in general.It was pretty good - we were walk through best practices of generating content and how to work with it.At one point I raised my hand and asked how you get that fancy question level type of CMI interactions into the system where it is a human readable format for consumption (essentially a training material question/answer level report). And @KMallette shouted out from the back of the room SCORM 2004, v3. She stopped over and we met for a first time in person :). I expressed it has been eluding me since we starting working with Docebo. We chatted about what could be the problem - and the conversation did not leave me.I am here to say that @KMallette is right. But there are some things to take into consideration to trigger that report properly.First and foremost, where I was going wrong? Do not set a trigger to complete your course. You want the completion criteria to be a person pas

Subscriptions advice for first time implementation

We are implementing Docebo as our first LMS, and are excited to launch it to our external customers in the coming months. We will have two categories of classes:Free All others will require a subscription.It should not be possible to buy an individual class. It seems that Docebo doesn’t support this use case very well without some less-than-ideal workarounds. I’m hopeful somebody in this community has some creative ideas or can help us see that we’re overlooking a clean solution.Here are the limitations as we understand them now. In order for any class to appear in the subscription, it has to be on-sale and therefore the class must have an associated price. However, we don’t want to sell individual classes, so the price for the individual class is misleading. We would like the price shown in the catalog to either show “Free” or “Requires Subscription” (or similar text). We know that AWS is doing this https://explore.skillbuilder.aws/learn/external-ecommerce but it requires considerable

SSL Certificates for Custom Domains

Hey everyone, it’s almost cert renewal time on my end and I wanted to see what others have been doing since Docebo migrated to the new Domain Management tool, which dropped the ability to easily create CSRs if we want to provide our own certs but added the ability to have Docebo manage the cert for us via Let’s Encrypt. I was speaking with Docebo support about this and they were initially suggesting it was easy to just let Docebo handle it nowadays. However, I was looking at the documentation at the same time and shared with them this this warning-like message: I’m guessing support wasn’t aware of that message because after I shared it they agreed that we would probably want to provide our own SSL Cert. I don’t recall seeing that attention/warning message the first time I looked at the documentation, but it was months ago so maybe it was there the whole time. Has anyone with a custom domain used the Docebo managed cert option either as a stop gap or a permanent solution? If so to eithe
