What is the best use of a Learning Pathway?
Learn how Learning Pathways can be used in a number of different situations to automate enrolments and allow learners to work through a sequence of series
A learning pathway is a structured approach to learning that outlines a set of Series or Modules to achieve a specific learning goal or competency. It's like a roadmap that guides learners through an automated progression of questions, helping them build upon previous learning and move towards mastery.
Pathways can be either Linear or Interleaved and the following are some examples of workplace Learning Pathways.
- Workplace Wellbeing Training Program Linear Pathway
- Company Induction for New Employees Interleaved Pathway
- Self-Paced Job Function Learning Interleaved Pathway
Workplace Wellbeing Training Program Linear Pathway
Use a Linear Learning Pathway to link a number of Series together that are required for one or more team members to achieve a specific workplace wellbeing training program.
The following is a sample structure for a Workplace Wellbeing Training Program Learning Pathway with 6 Series.

Company Induction for New Employees Interleaved Pathway
Use an Interleaved Learning Pathway to link a number of Series together that are required to get a new employee acquainted with the company mission and values, key structures and people, employee health and safety and locations.
The following is a sample structure for a Company Induction Learning Pathway which includes 3 modules and 2 to 3 Series per module.

✅ Multiple Learning Pathways can be created which could include specific site inductions depending on the location or job function that the employee(s) are doing
✅ Concurrent Enrolments could be set to 3 in this example because there is no sequence to the content and to also ensure that new employees are inducted quickly
Self-Paced Job Function Learning Interleaved Pathway
Use an Interleaved Learning Pathway to link a number of Series together that are required for one or more team members to achieve a specific learning outcome that relates to their job. This could be for new team members to get them inducted to the job requirements or to implement a capability uplift for existing team members.
The following is a sample structure for a Worker Induction / Capability Uplift Program Learning Pathway with 3 modules and 4 to 5 Series per module.
