Reviewing Additional Features in Admin Center

Objectives

After completing this lesson, you will be able to:
  • Discuss the additional administration features after integration.
  • Import learning activities with development goals.

Admin Center Options that Appear after CDP and LMS Integration

After the integration of CDP and LMS is completed with Professional Services, the administrator will have access to some new or additional features of Admin Center within Permissions and Development.

When navigating to Admin CenterSet User PermissionsManage Permission Roles, select the admin role and edit it. When finished, go to the Administrator Permissions and then Manage Career Development as seen below:

Three options on the Manage Career Development section are highlighted.

Now, you should see some permission options like Manage Learning Activity Catalogs, Manage Learning Activity to Attribute Mappings, and Mapping Learning Activities to Attributes. These permissions are used to maintain the information shared or accessed in the integration.

Development Goals Import with Custom Learning Activities

When using the tool ‘Import Development Goals’, it is possible to download the CSV template and complete it with development goals and custom learning activities.

The Development section on the Admin Center page is displayed, with Import Development Goals highlighted.

Importing learning activities with development goals is only available for customers that have enabled the Transcript feature, which is the integration between CDP (Career Development Plan) and LMS (Learning Management System). This explains why customers who do not have the transcript enabled will see that development goals may be successfully imported but not the associated learning activities.

Moreover, it is only possible to add, update, or delete custom learning activities. It is not possible to perform any actions on the learning activities from the LMS catalog.

Overview of the column content for the Import for Learning Activities:

  • To import learning activities, the TYPE should be LEARNING.
  • GUID is the GUID of the goal and the SUBGUID is the GUID of the learning activity.
  • For the ADD action, leave SUBGUID and the LEARNING_guid blank, and the system will automatically generate a value.
  • You can add, delete, and update all custom learning activities.
The Import Development Goals screen is displayed.

Note

Importing learning activities to a ‘Completed Goal’ will not work. You need to change the goal status to ‘In Progress’ or ‘Not Started’ and then import.

If importing to a manually added goal, you can use the ‘Goal ID’ instead of the GUID. Manually added goals do not have GUIDs (only imported ones have it).
