How to add Learning Sessions In SmartPath Module?

Your SmartPaths can be enhanced with Learning Sessions to provide scheduled instructor-led or facilitated activities as part of the learning journey.


SmartWinnr allows you to set up Learning sessions as part of the SmartPath. There are two types of learning sessions available in SmartWinnr:

  • Classroom Learning Session - This is basically an offline classroom session where the training is scheduled on SmartWinnr and users have to attend the classroom training session physically. 
  • Virtual Learning Session - This is an online session conducted on any virtual platform like Zoom, Google meet, etc where the learning session can be scheduled under the Smartwinnr platform. 

To conduct and schedule a learning session, the editor must create a SmartPath Module under which either an offline classroom session or an online virtual session can be scheduled. Creating a SmartPath Module for learning sessions follows the same process as creating modules for quizzes, surveys, or SmartFeeds.

A module can include a mix of segment including learning sessions and other segments like quiz/SmartFeed etc.


Please follow the below steps to add a Learning session to your SmartPath Module:


a) Go to  EDITOR > LEARNING AND KNOWLEDGE > SmartPaths > View All Modules

b) Here, create a new module or select the module in which you would like to add a Learning session.


c) Once your module is created or selected, go to step 2, where you add Segments to your module.  Click on the 'Add Segment button at the top right corner of the page.

d) To create a segment that is basically the classroom/virtual session,  choose the option- Learning Session in the 'Select Segment Type' dropdown as shown below.

e) After selecting the Learning Session,  enter the 'Name' for the segment and you can select how many points the user will get after completing this segment under Point Distribution>> On Completion and click on the 'Create' button. This will successfully create your segment for Learning Session. Refer to the below picture for reference.

f) Once the learning segment is created, it will take you to the following page where you can fill in the details of the Learning Session.

  • Title for your session
  • Description- You can mention the details about the training in the description (Optional).
  • Session type where you can find two options: Virtual Session and Classroom Session.
    • Virtual Session: Virtual session says that you are going to conduct your training virtually through some online platform. When you choose the session type as Virtual Session, in the further steps, the system will ask you to provide the link where the meetings can be conducted virtually. (Example: Microsoft Teams, Google Meet)
    • Classroom Session: This is like the normal classroom sessions where the trainer and trainees come in tow a classroom or conference Hall to attend the training. When you choose the session type as Classroom Session, in the further steps, the system will ask you to mention the address of the place where the session will be conducted. 

You can also send a calendar invitation for the scheduled training session so that the user can be prepared for the training. Enable the Send Calendar Invitation option to send the invitation.

When the Editor enables the calendar invite, the user will receive the invitation as shown below, based on the session details provided in the SmartPath Batch.

Then click on the Save button to complete creating the learning session.

Once your Module is created with the Learning session segment, you need to attach this module to a SmartPath to assign this to the users who will take the training.
