Use Filters on the Learning Search Screen

Use the search filter on the left pane to search for courses and learning paths based on your search criteria.

Contents

The filters are multi-select check boxes. When you select a main category filter, it will expand to display the sub filters for that category. So make sure to review and select the relevant sub filters to achieve optimal search results.

Use the two floating buttons, Update Results and Reset Filter, to quickly clear out search selections or refresh the search results table.

Field Description
Keywords

Enter keywords to describe the courses and learning paths you are looking for (for example, Excel if you are looking for a course on Microsoft Excel, or Internet Security if you are looking for a course or learning path on that subject).

The search looks at the name and description of courses and learning paths to find the keywords. If you use multiple keywords in the search filter, the search functionality considers each word as a separate filter requirement. As a result, it displays only learning paths and courses where all the keywords are present (either in the item title or description, or both).

Type Use this filter to select courses or learning paths.
  • Courses: Use this filter to expand the choices to display Instructor-led, E-Learning, and Read and Sign.
  • Learning Paths: Use this filter to display the relevant learning paths and their associated courses.

Learning Paths with names or descriptions that match your filter are excluded.
