Question

Why does course progress stay below 100% when a learner completes all training materials for one language?

Hi everyone,

We’re using the multi-language course option, but we’ve found one issue that makes it difficult to use for more courses.

In a multi-language course, each language has its own folder containing the relevant content. Learners only need to complete the folder in their language for the course status to show as Completed.

However, the progress percentage does not reach 100% when a learner completes only one language folder. For example, if a course has two language folders and a learner completes one, the course status shows Completed but the progress is only 50%.

This affects reporting, as it looks as if the learner has not completed the course, even though they completed the only language they needed to take.

Why is progress calculated across all language folders if learners only need to complete one? Is this expected behavior, or is there a way to show 100% progress once a learner completes their language?

It can be confusing to see a course marked Completed with less than 100% progress. Has anyone else experienced this?

​@SD Smith Thank you for this question! After quick review, would it be ok if I moved this into the Course & Content product discussion? You may get more visibility for replies. Please let me know 🙂

I recall that the Docebo team flagged this as a limitation around a year ago - it seems like the platform still displays learner progress in relation to all of the training materials in the course, which I agree is not a great reporting experience. We see the same behaviour in our platform, so I don't believe this has been addressed yet unfortunately :(
