Instructor-led Training Overview

In-person training can be an effective complement to the online training you provide your staff.

The Damstra Learning Platform offers a convenient method of documenting and managing instructor-led training sessions and recording the attendance of trainees at these sessions.

Instructor-led training in the Damstra Learning Platform can be divided into two key components.

• Instructor-led lessons
• Instructor-led sessions

An instructor-led lesson is similar to a normal Damstra Learning lesson. You create a lesson and schedule it for all of the Trainees you would like to complete the lesson.

The key distinction is that once you create an instructor-led lesson, you also need to create session times for which Trainees will be able to attend to complete the lesson. These are called Instructor-led sessions.

A session Instructor must verify that the trainee has attended the in-person training session.

When an instructor-led lesson has been created, and sessions to complete the lesson have been created. Trainees will be able to view the lesson on their accounts Learn Page, and register for a session time.

The basic flow of Instructor-led training in Damstra Learning is as follows:

1. Create an Instructor-led lesson and schedule trainees to attend the lesson.
2. Create a series of session times trainees can attend the lesson.
3. Assign trainees to the Instructor-led sessions, or wait for them to register on the Learn page in their account.
4. Complete the Instructor-led session and mark the Trainees as 'attended.'
