Oracle Learning Setup and Maintenance Tasks

To implement the structure that learning administrators and learners use to create and consume learning, complete these setup tasks.

Task Name Description Recommended Help
Manage Profile Options Enable the applicable learning features controlled by profile options. For example, specify the location of learner selection criteria and control SCORM behavior. Also enable learning administrators to include learning outcomes, enrollment questionnaires, and evaluations for courses and specializations.
Manage Common Lookups Review and change learning lookups. The lookups handle identifying assignment attribution and content source types. They also ensure consistent measurements and identify the reason for various actions. The actions include marking learning assignments as completed, deleting them, withdrawing them, and withdrawing from learning items.
Manage Descriptive Flexfields Optionally edit, validate, and deploy descriptive flexfields to add company-defined attributes for learning objects. Learning objects include content and instructor-led training resources, course offerings, courses, and specializations.
Manage Approval Transactions for Human Capital Management Optionally change default learning approval rules to better support your policies. For example, require approval before people withdraw from learning items, when they report content, and before they post self-service content to the catalog.
Manage Task Configurations for Human Capital Management Optionally change default approval notification workflows to better support your policies. For example, send learners informational notifications about assignment completions and withdrawals. And send approvers actionable notifications to approve assignment completions and withdrawals.
Scheduled Processes Review background processes automatically scheduled by Learning. Schedule manual processes, such as Load and Synchronize External Course Data, Process Unfinished Attempts, and Process Learning Alerts, as appropriate. Also run the reconcile processes as needed.
External Content and Virtual Classroom Providers Configure integrations with external content providers, such as LinkedIn Learning and Skillsoft, so that learners can manage their learning from a single catalog. Also configure integrations with virtual classroom providers to provide course offerings with robust virtual instructor-led training (VILT).
Alerts Composer Optionally send informational alerts to learners and instructors about specific learning events, such as reminders of upcoming activities or notifications about offering changes.
Work Structures Create the physical locations that learning administrators use when creating instructor-led and virtual instructor-led training (ILT and VILT).

If your providing the Redwood self-service experience for your learners, you also need to set up the Redwood user experience. The next chapter details this setup.
