Creating a Curriculum

To create a curriculum follow these steps: 

1. In BluePrint, click on Curriculums on the left-hand side.
2. Select the Create Curriculum button. 
   
3. On the New Curriculum page, fill out the following information:
   1. Course Name (required) - pick a course you would like to create a curriculum for.    
      1. Only courses with Curriculum feature access enabled will be displayed. The dropdown excludes courses with milestones.  
   2. Curriculum Name (required) - name of the curriculum displayed to learners within the Learning Application. 
   3. Curriculum Description (optional) - description of the curriculum displayed to learners within the Learning Application. 
   4. Role Scope Context - The scope of the custom role containing the curriculum creation permissions determine the options shown in this dropdown menu. Select the appropriate context to pick desired learners you would like to assign this curriculum to.
   5. Assign Learners - This page lists all valid learners of the selected context (ie branch) as well as children branches (if any), that have an active enrollment. Select the checkbox next to each learner you would like to assign this curriculum.  You can also narrow your search by selecting an appropriate branch or group (if applicable) to display desired learners and make your selection from the provided list.  NOTE: If access is provided via a branch plan the learner must log in and access the course to activate their enrollment and appear to be added to the curriculum. If access is provided via a voucher, the learner will appear to be added to the curriculum without needing to access the course first.
   6. If you are not ready to assign users yet, skip this step without selecting any users. You can return back to this curriculum to assign users later by editing the curriculum. 
4. Once ready, select Next to proceed to the Select Study Tasks step. After moving to the next screen you will not be able to update the Course Name or Role Scope Context fields - these selections are locked in as you continue to configure this curriculum. This curriculum is saved as a draft even if you exit the curriculum creation wizard.

   1. Click the + icon next to the desired study task to move the tasks from Available to Selected Tasks section. You can also drag and drop the tasks into the Selected Tasks section.  
   2. To remove a task from the curriculum, either drag and drop the task into the left column, or select the - icon next to the task name.
      You can drag and drop individual tasks within the Selected Tasks section to easily rearrange the order. 
      
6. Select Manage Dates if you would like to specify Release and Completion dates for Selected Tasks.
   1. Release Date - determines when learners can access a study task via the curriculum. 
   2. Completion Date - suggested target date for learners to finish a study task. 
      You can specify dates for individual tasks or select 1 date forall. Tasks with set dates will be indicated by a filled out calendar icon. Hover over the icon to see the details:
      
7. Select Next to move to the Review and Finalize step. Review the details and when ready, click on the Assign button to release the curriculum you created! 
   

If you don’t want students to see the curriculum yet, skip this step by clicking Cancel or navigating away from the page.
