Access the Learning Edge
To access the Learning Edge, you must have a Percipio user role of site admin, learning admin, or content curator. If you have a Percipio user role of domain administrator, you can contact your Skillsoft account team to get access. With one of these admin accounts, you can access the Learning Edge in one of two ways:
This is the most direct way because from Percipio you are automatically authenticated into the Learning Edge with your Percipio user credentials.
From the Explore menu, select Learning Edge. If you do not see the Explore menu, work with your Skillsoft account team to enable the Explore menu option.
If you do not have access to the Explore menu from Percipio, and you have an appropriate admin role, you can still access the Learning Edge. To do so:
- Use a direct link such as: Learning Edge Catalogs.
- Select Login next to the location that best matches where your site is located. The options are based on the data center where your Percipio site is hosted:
- Americas - US data center
- Global (Outside Americas) - EU data center.
- Enter your Percipio domain name. For example in: https://akara.percipio.com, akara is the domain name of the Percipio site URL.
- Select Go to Percipio.
- Log into your Percipio site with your Percipio credentials. The Learning Edge site displays.
After you login, get detailed information on using the Learning Edge.
Learning Edge User Account
When you access the Learning Edge for the first time, a secure account is automatically created for you using the following information from your Percipio user account:
- First name
- Last name
- Email address
- User UUID
- Percipio user role
- Active status
- When possible, it also uses the Percipio URL and company name
If your Percipio user account gets set to a status of inactive, or your role changes to learner or manager, you lose access to the Learning Edge.
