Completion Settings

On this page you can configure a minimum passing score and choose whether learners can receive certificates of completions.

Access this page from the Settings menu and Site Configuration, then Completion Settings.

Course Completion

In this section, you set the completion criteria for all Skillsoft courses. You cannot change the completion criteria for any other asset types (such as videos, audiobooks, books, or TestPreps). Custom course packages include their own completion criteria (which is set during course creation).

Minimum required assessment score: This number is the minimum score percentage a learner must score on a course test.

• This minimum score percentage applies universally for all Skillsoft courses.
• The default score percentage is 70%, but you can customize the value from 50% to 100%.
• The minimum score percentage displays to learners on the course page, as part of the course completion criteria.
• This score does not apply to TestPrep exams.

Course is complete when minimum assessment score is achieved: Selecting this option allows the user to take the assessment without having to watch any course videos. Use this option to help learners test out of content they may already know. If the course does not have an assessment, the learner must watch at least 50% of each video to achieve completion..

Course is complete when all videos are viewed or minimum assessment score is achieved: This is the default option. When selected, a learner can either achieve the minimum score or watch at least 50% of every video within the course for the course to be marked as complete.

• A video is considered viewed (complete) when a learner views at least 50% of the content.
• A learner can complete the course by achieving the minimum score percentage on the assessment (test) instead of watching all the course videos.
• If the course does not have an assessment, the learner must watch at least 50% of each video to achieve completion.

Course is complete when all videos are viewed and minimum assessment score is achieved. When selected, learners only achieve completion after they watch all videos (at least 50% of each video) and achieve the minimum score on the assessment. If the course does not have an assessment, the learner must watch at least 50% of each video to achieve completion.

Learning time entry

By default, Percipio doesn't capture learning time for learners when they access custom external linked content, custom web pages, or custom files. You can allow learners to enter the time they spend on such content by selecting this option: Allow learners to enter time spent for non-tracked content items.

If you allow learners to enter their own time spent learning for these non-tracked items, the time the learner enters counts toward any learning goal they set and shows in reports in their total learning time. When you allow learners to enter time, they can specify time for both types content completion criteria: The learner opens it and The learner marks it as complete.

Skill Benchmark Completion Interval

Skill Benchmarks allow learners to rate their level of proficiency for a particular skill. The results of a benchmark show how strong an individual is in that skill and where they can improve. To help a learner improve, Percipio shows them specific content recommendations targeted to those questions answered incorrectly. The learner then consumes the recommended content and retakes the benchmark to improve their proficiency.

The default number of days that have to pass before a learner can retake the benchmark is 30 days. You can change this to fit your organization's culture. The minimum value you can select is 14 days; this gives the learner a chance to review content before retaking the benchmark.

To change the default:

1. Check the box for: Override 30 days completion interval.
2. Specify the number of days in the Re-take assessment interval (in days) field.
3. Select Save changes.

After the selected number of days passes, Percipio sends a recommendation email to the learner prompting them that it is time to retake their benchmark to improve their score. Learners also see reminders in re-engagement emails.

Completion Certificates

The settings in this section control whether learners can receive certificates of completion for either Skillsoft courses and Aspire Journeys or custom SCORM/AICC courses and custom journeys.

If a learner downloaded a certificate upon completion, and then the item had a name change, they can download the certificate again to show the new name.

Enable Completion certificates for Skillsoft Content: When selected, learners see a Download Certificate link next to each eligible, completed Skillsoft course, Aspire journey, or custom journey on their Activity page. When not selected, learners do not see the Download Certificate link. See Site Branding for customizing Skillsoft certificates of completion.

Enable Completion certificates for Custom Content: When selected, learners see a Download Certificate link next to each eligible, completed custom AICC or SCORM course on their Activity page. When not selected, learners do not see the Download Certificate link. See Site Branding for customizing custom course or journey certificates of completion.
