Scheduling a Live Lesson
You can schedule one live lesson (webinar) per module by clicking ‘ Add Webinar’ if this feature has been enabled on your platform.
Step 1
On the create/edit module page, scroll down to the 'Learning Resources' section and click 'Add Webinar'
Step 2
Set the name, date, start time and the estimated number of CPD minutes available for the webinar.
- The 'Start Time' must be set using the 24 hour clock (e.g. if you plan to host your live lesson at 6pm please enter 18:00)
- When you set the time of your webinar it will be based on your local time zone
- In the 'CPD, mins' filed please enter the estimated duration of the live lesson (it doesn't matter if the actual live lesson ends up being shorter or longer than this estimate)
Once you click 'Add' you will be returned to the module overview page and you will see the webinar displayed in the 'Learning Resources' table.
You cannot add more than one webinar to the module so the 'Add Webinar' button will now be disabled.
You can edit the date and time of the webinar by clicking the edit icon next to the live lesson.
Please note that you can also add other learning resources to the module.
Step 3 (optional)
If you want to have more than one live lesson in your course then you can repeat this process.
Simply add a new module and then follow steps 1 & 2 to add another live lesson.
Step 4
When you are ready to publish your course to the Catalogue, simply click 'Publish' top right of the screen.
This will also trigger an email to be sent to the course creator (and Admin) containing a unique link to host each webinar within the course.
Important: When your learners enrol to the course containing one or more live lessons, they will receive an email confirming the date and time of each live lesson contained in the course.
Step 5
If you need to edit the date/time of you webinar you can still do this after the course has been published.
When you save the changes, any learners already enrolled to the course will be automatically notified of the change via email.
