Hey, I’m confused by the guidance on equivalencies. Can someone please confirm for me that I did this correctly?

 

If someone takes either “Section 1” course, “Micro-Intervention” is marked complete. If “Micro-intervention” is completed, there is no effect on the Section 1 courses.

Thanks!

For anyone interested, I called Docebo support and I was backward from what I intended as the functionality. Section 1 courses are now “target” to make it so that someone completing this course does not get credit for Section 1, but section 1 courses mark this course as complete.

hard to see fully but if you have a “mutual equivalency”, that means that either course, when completed, will give credit to the other course and mark it as completed as well.

@lrnlab I am showing the course “Micro-Intervention” and I have the “Section 1” courses set as Source. They are the source courses for Micro-intervention, but I’m having a hard time with the guidance as to whether I’m listing them as target or source on this page.

Well if Section is the “source” course for “Micro-intervention” then once Section 1 is completed, it will mark the other course as done as well. Always good to test the effects of these settings...honestly I dont see that much different between using source and target since both associated courses show on the user transcript anyway (dont like this but that’s what it does regardless)

Can this be elaborated  a little clearer? The descriptions for us NON-technical admins can be quite confusing when  we work with visual, charts, flows daily.

Flow chart would be great  A=Source / B=Target  and hopefully mutual  means bi-directional.  If A is the source and it is complete… is B also complete?  or am I backwards?  

I have 4 specific courses that i need 2 sets of equivalencies - single direction. Complete A will give credit for B but not bi-directional. What is the target, what is the source?

Also can e-learning now be equivalent to an ILT as we pivot to advance more e-learning courses vs travelling.

@Robin H absolutely agree that it would be nice if they made it clearer. Here’s the help desk page for it: Configuring course equivalencies – Docebo Help & Support

My issue is which one shows which to know that you’ve done it right. I thought I had it right but then looked at Docebo and took a new screenshot and it doesn’t look like I changed it from above even though I said I understood now. I haven’t been able to test it because the course is only offered once a year in the fall. I did learn the hard way last week that it’s not retroactive, so I had to export all the people from the source course and manually pass them through the target courses.
