Course Duration

To ensure your users have assigned adequate time to complete a course, you can use the Approx. Course Duration functionality to advise how long it may take them to complete.

This can be updated for courses in a Create and Publish state and will be visible to end users on both the platform and the MyCompliance Teams app.

Assigning a Course Duration

During the Publish phase, the course creator can insert an expected duration for a Fusion or SCORM course.

Fusion Courses

The sum of the videos included in the course can be viewed by navigating to Course Publish > Settings > and clicking Save.

Where a course has a quiz attached, there will be no time automatically assigned to this; however, to account for this, you can add more time to the Approx. Course Duration before you publish the course.

SCORM Courses

You can simply insert your preferred duration while you are uploading the SCORM package by navigating to SCORM Publish > Settings.

 

Viewing the Course Duration

For end users, this information will be populated on the Approx. Duration column:

Published Courses

For courses published prior to February 2025, i.e. prior to this functionality being available, an Approx. Duration may be populated; however, you can edit as required.

Fusion Courses

The sum of the Nano videos included in the course will be automatically displayed as the Approx. Duration.

  • To edit this, navigate to Learning in Progress, locate the required course and select View Course.
  • Now, navigate to the Settings tab, scroll down to Approx. Course Duration and edit as required.
  • Once the relevant duration has been added, click Update Course and enter a reason for the update.

SCORM Courses

As we are unable to determine the duration of custom SCORM courses, this will be displayed as 'Not Provided’ by default. However, if required, this can be updated as follows.

  • Navigate to Learning in Progress and locate the required course.
  • Select View Course.
  • Next, navigate to the Settings tab, scroll down to Approx. Course Duration and edit as required.
  • Once the relevant duration has been added, click Update Course and enter a reason for the update.
