The Instructor Panel is where you create and manage courses in your workspace, whether for training, safety, knowledge sharing or any other need your company has in LeanSuite.
Who can do this: You need the right role permissions to create and manage courses. Ask your LeanSuite administrator if you can't see the Instructor Panel.
This is what a typical Instructor Panel looks like:
The sections below break down the options and fields in the Instructor Panel.
Top bar
Submitted Quizzes: shows the number of submitted quizzes and takes you to the list of quizzes from all courses, where you can view and mark them.
Instructors: shows the number of instructors in the workspace and takes you to the list of instructors. You can see all other instructors and, with the right permissions, add or remove instructors.
Enrollment Requests: shows the number of requests to enroll in private courses.
From the top bar you can:
View submitted quizzes
Mark submitted quizzes
View the instructors in the workspace
Add or remove instructors in the workspace
The View Details option on both cards opens a combined Your Tasks dashboard that lists all submitted quizzes and instructors.
This is what the combined dashboard looks like:
Your Learning Hub
This part of the Instructor Panel displays the courses, learning plans and quizzes created in your workspace. In the current version it has two sections:
Continue Editing: items you are still working on.
Backlog: other items created in the workspace.
Each section has Courses, Learning Plan and Quizzes tabs showing how many items of each kind there are, a View All link and a + Create New button.
The button with white text on a blue background is the active one.
On the right, a calendar and a Timeline (with its own View All) show your scheduled classes.
This is where you create and develop courses and their quizzes for your workspace.
From the Learning Hub you can:
Create a course
Assign a course
Delete a course
Create a quiz
All Courses and All Quizzes
The Learning Hub shows only a limited number of items.
Use the View All link at the top right of a section to open the full All Courses or All Quizzes dashboard, where more options are available.
Tip: You can also create new courses and quizzes from the All Courses and All Quizzes dashboards, or with + Create New.
Related features
Recommended order: build the quiz first, then the course, then the learning plan.
Assign to roles: you can assign a course or learning plan to one or more roles (for example, for onboarding), not only to individual users.
Course Share: share a course with other facilities. With Private access, the course is visible in those facilities but only assigned people can open it.
In-class sessions: for instructor-led courses you set the location, instructor, seats and waitlist. Trainees enter an attendance code, which acts as their e-signature, and the instructor marks each trainee present or absent.
Course settings include a completion window (the course is marked overdue when it's missed), Public or Private enrollment with Enrollment requests, max attempts and lockout, prerequisites and a yearly Refresher auto-assign.
