Types of Courses
Skill Lake offers two types of courses. They are Self-paced and Instructor-led courses.
Self-Paced Courses
A self-paced course is a learning experience in which learners can progress through the material at their own pace and on their schedule. Unlike traditional courses with fixed timelines, self-paced courses allow individuals to start, pause, and resume their learning according to their preferences. Learners can move through the content, complete assignments, and take assessments independently, allowing for a more personalized and adaptable learning journey.
- Self-paced courses do not require an instructor to lead the course.
- It has no specific start and end dates.
- The learner can learn these courses at their own pace or as per the deadline set by the mentor.
- The learners can also self-enroll from the library of courses available under the Browse tab and complete the course.
Note: If a course is assigned to a group, all learners of the group and its subgroup can view the course.
Instructor-led Courses
An instructor leads the instructor-led courses and has pre-defined start and end dates. They include live sessions, webinars, learning materials, tests, and assignments for the benefit of the learners. Learners are enrolled in specific batches by the Instructor or Administrator and can access the course from their Learning Home or Profile page.
- Instructor-led courses serve as templates for generating various batches in the future.
- Each batch created from a template can enroll its own set of students.
- The Courses page displays the course name, created by the user, created on date, course status, count of batches made, and various actions that can be performed.
Note: If a course is assigned to a group, all learners of the group and its subgroup can view the course.
