Contents
Field | Description |
---|---|
Class |
Enter the name of the class. Give the class a name that will be relevant to a student. For example, if you are offering several time options for the same class, make sure that the classes are distinctly named so that students can differentiate between them. |
Course Name |
The course name displays automatically and cannot be changed. |
Credits |
This is the number of internal credits that a student will earn by completing the course with a passing grade. This number displays automatically and cannot be changed. |
CEUs |
This is the number of CEUs (Continuing Education Units) that a student will earn by completing the course with a passing grade. This number displays automatically and cannot be changed. When students receive external certifications, degrees, or titles, they sometimes have to complete CEUs to maintain their professional standing. Before granting CEUs, your organization must verify that the appropriate accrediting associations will accept the CEUs. |
Status |
Select the status that applies to the class.
|
Company/Division |
To associate a class with a company or division, select a value from the drop-down list. Select Global if the class is for all employees, enterprise-wide. |
Suppress Roster |
Select this option to prevent students from seeing the names of the other students in the class. |
Private Class |
Select this option if the class is intended for a private audience. When a student searches for a class, the search results only include classes that are designated to be public, not those designated to be private. |
Class Type |
The class type displays automatically based on the class type of the course.
|
Enable Show/No-Show Grading |
Select this option and enter 100 in the Passing Grade field if the instructor can give a pass/fail grade based on attendance alone. |
Passing Grade |
Enter a passing grade, expressed as a percentage, for the class. Enter 100 and select Enable Show/No-Show Grading if all students who attend the class receive a passing grade. |
Overall Assignment Weight/Overall Test Weight |
Enter the overall assignment and test weights in these fields (for example, 30% to assignments and 70% to tests). Deltek Talent Learning uses these fields to automatically average student scores. Both percentages added together should equal 100%. After you specify the overall weights of assignments and tests, the instructor can determine the weight of each individual assignment or test (for example, two tests make up the 70% test weight: a midterm weighted at 40% and a final test weighted at 60%). |
Minimum Students |
Enter the minimum number of students required to hold the class. If the minimum number is not reached by the add/drop date, the class owner (the person who created the class) receives an email notification to cancel the class or modify the minimum number of students. Deltek Talent Learning does not automatically cancel the class if the minimum number is not reached. |
Remote Capacity |
Enter the total number of students who can attend the class remotely (for example, via phone or web meeting). |
On-site Capacity |
Enter the total number of students who can attend the class in person. This number determines the size of the rooms that are suggested for scheduling purposes. |
Total Maximum Capacity |
This number displays automatically. It is the sum of Remote Capacity plus On-site Capacity. This number determines when a waiting list is created. |
Notify administrators when waiting list reaches |
When the waiting list reaches the number of students entered in this field, the Learning Administrator receives a notification. |
