TalentLMS helps you engage users and boost the number of Learners who complete courses by reminding them to complete their training. You do this by setting up a recurring notification.
To create a recurring notification, follow these steps:
1. Sign in to your TalentLMS account as an Administrator and go to Notifications (1).
2. Click Add notification (2).
3. Type a Name (3) for your notification in the respective field. (The name is visible only to you so that you can recognize the notification. Learners will not see it.)
4. From the Event (4) drop-down list, select the X hours after course acquisition event. (This means the notification will be triggered only for users that are still in progress X hours after they have been assigned to a course.)
5. Add when the first notification should be triggered in hours (5). Time starts from the moment the Learner is assigned to the course.
6. From the Recipient (6) drop-down list, choose a recipient for your notification. It can be a specific user or all users that are assigned to the course, an Instructor, or an Administrator.
7. In the notification Body (7) text area, do as follows:
- On the first line, type a subject for your notification email (e.g., Reminder to complete your course), and press Enter to change lines.
- Then, type your notification (e.g., Tick tock {related_user_first_name}! It seems you have not yet completed the "{course_name}" course).
- Finally, add a footer with some basic notification info (e.g.,This email was sent from {site_url} at {time}).
8. To repeat the reminder, enable the This is a recurring notification (8) feature. You can repeat the reminder daily or weekly at a custom frequency. Here are some examples:
- The notification repeats every 2 days, and ends after 7 occurrences: it will be triggered 7 times in a period of 14 days (2*7=14).
- The notification repeats every 4 weeks and ends after 39 occurrences: it will be triggered 39 times in a period of 3 years (4*39= 156 weeks= 39 months= 3 years).
9. Click the Save (9) button to save your settings.
Note: This notification is not triggered when a Learner has already completed the course. |
