We have a Certification that offers two choices to earning it: “Bypass Exam” (a course) or “Course Pathway” (learning plan). The Bypass Exam allows skilled learners to test out of having to take the 6 courses in the Learning Plan. If the learner attempts the Bypass Exam and fails, they can still take the Learning Plan. We are finding that learners who have passed the exam are still receiving Virtual Coach notifications encouraging them to take the Learning Plan. So, it seems that setting up an Equivalency may solve this problem.
Would using the Bypass Exam as a Source Course be the best route or would Mutual Equivalencies be the best route? With Mutual Equivalencies, it seems that if one of the 6 courses in the Learning Plan is completed than the Bypass Exam would be equivalent when actually 6 courses = the Bypass Exam.
It also seems that this will only potentially solve the problem going forward because setting the equivalencies is not retroactive. Any ideas?
