Speaking of tracks...

Tracks are a set of training courses or tracks that allow you to acquire certain expertise as you complete them successfully.

They may have other tracks, training courses or subjects as requirements and, in this case, you cannot register until you complete all of its requirements successfully.

The training courses that make up the track can also be defined as requirements for its other training courses.

You can define a pre-test for a track and indicate whether it will be a passing criterion, i.e. if the student can pass the track by taking only the pre-test, without having to watch all the content.

Just as the pre-test, you can also define a post-test for the track and a required score to pass it. When you do not define a post-test for the track, after finishing all its items, the student completes the registration successfully.

A track can be associated to a class as a topic item, in that case, the parameterization settings defined in the class take precedence.

Tracks may also include a reaction evaluation – such as a satisfaction survey – and a certificate, to be issued to the student when they finish the course successfully.
