Question

Language. equivalents of courses

We offer courses for external clients. For each client and course, the number of participants is limited.

 

Some clients require access to the same course in multiple languages, but they are unable to predict in advance how the number of participants will be distributed across these language versions.

 

I had the idea to solve this by introducing course equivalents. Ideally, the course displayed to the user should depend on the selected platform language. Regardless of which language version is used, there should be a fixed number of user licenses that can be flexibly distributed across the course equivalents.

 

Has anyone had experience with such an approach? Is this technically feasible, or is there possibly a better solution?

 

Kind regards

Hi yes you can do that but keep in mind when using equivalencies, all linked courses will appear in the user transcript and you cannot identify which course they actually completed as they all show with the same status (there is no status for “credit by equivalency”). The only thing that differentiates a course that was actually completed vs. not, is the time spent in the course.

Another approach would be to place all your training objects in a single course and mark them all as ‘end object markers’ so that the user can complete whichever one they want. Haven't tested to see if they can go back and redo the other learning objects - that would be a good scenario to test if you like this option. 

Docebo is working on a version of multi-language courses but not sure we’ll see that this year. See the product roadmap for more details.
