Adding, Editing and Deactivating a Location

Maintaining a list of locations where you regularly hold instructor-led training allows you to easily select from a prepopulated list when you create a live course.

To access the location list:

  1. From the left navigation bar, select Content then Live Courses (ILT).
  2. Select Manage > Manage location and instructors.

    Manage location and instructors page

On the Locations and Classrooms tab, you can perform the following actions to maintain your location list:

Adding a new location includes it in the pre-populated list you use when creating a live course. Currently, you can only add one location at a time; you cannot bulk add many locations simultaneously.

  1. Click the Add new location button.
  2. Specify a location name.
  3. Optionally, enter an address, a contact at that location, and provide a description. This information is included in learners' confirmation emails.
  4. Click Save and add location. The location is immediately available from the prepopulated list when creating a live course.
  1. For the location you need to edit, select the Actions menu actions menu icon, gray elipse in the Actions column, then select Edit location.
  2. Change any information about the existing location.
  3. Click Save changes. Changes are immediately available in the prepopulated list when creating a live course.

Deactivating a location removes it from the prepopulated list visible when creating a live course, but keeps it in the Locations and Classrooms list as inactive. If you have active courses and classes using a location that you are going to deactivate and you open that course or class to make an edit, you must update the location field with a new one.

  1. For the location you need to deactivate, select the Actions menu actions menu icon, gray elipse in the Actions column, then select Deactivate location. A confirmation message appears.
  2. Click Deactivate. The location is immediately removed from the prepopulated list. If any classrooms are associated with this location, they too are deactivated.

Activating a location immediately adds it to the prepopulated list visible when creating a live course.

  1. For the location you need to activate, select the Actions menu actions menu icon, gray elipse in the Actions column, then select Activate location.
  2. Changes are immediately available in the prepopulated list when creating a live course. If any classrooms are associated with this location, they are not activated. You need to activate each classroom separately.
