Journey Activity Report

The Journey Activity report (beta) provides a complete picture of each journey and its tracks showing learner completion status.

If you need to see detail for more than one journey at a time, you can run the Journey Detailed Export report.

Report insights

The Journey Activity report shows you:

  • For each journey how many unique learners and completions there are.
  • How much time learners have spent within each journey compared to the estimated time.
  • A list of users who have started a journey and their progress to date including how many tracks they completed and how many they have in progress, as well as how many they have not started.
  • For each user the items they accessed within a track and their progress for those items as well as progress for the track. It also shows you items that they have not accessed.
  • When items, tracks, and journeys were started, last accessed, and completed.
  • The content that users have not started in a track. You can only see this per user per journey because a user's view of journey content could be different from the full set of content within a journey due to entitlements.

With this information, you can get a sense of the overall health of your journey. If it is taking learners a long time to complete a journey or track after starting it, that may be an indication to send a reminder or poll your learners to find out why they stopped. If a journey has not been accessed in a while, perhaps it is time to promote it or archive it.

Filters

The Journey Activity report has the following filters available:

  • Date Range: Filters the data by a specified range of dates that you select from the drop-down list. The list of journeys returned on the Summary tab only includes those journeys with a last access date that was within the date range. When viewing the journey details, you will see all users who have had activity with that journey not constrained to the date filter.
  • User filters: Under the Users filter option, you may see options for Audiences and Users. Select the plus to expand the option you want to specify. Search for the audiences or users you want to see, then select them from the list. You can perform multiple searches and make multiple selections and see them on the Selected tab. You can select up to 20 criteria. When you are done selecting all audiences or users, select Apply filters to return to the main filter list or expand the next filter group.
  • Include Inactive users: Select if you want to include users whose account status has been set to inactive because they left the company or went on leave.
  • Content filters: There are five filters under this section. Select the plus sign next to the option you want to specify. Search for the item(s) you want to see, then select them from the list. You can perform multiple searches and make multiple selections and see them on the Selected tab. When you are done selecting all items, expand another filter to continue or select Apply filters. Content filters available include the following:
    • Assignment or program titles: Journeys in specific assignments or learning programs.
    • Journey title: Select one or more journey titles. Filtering by journey title only returns journeys with recorded learner activity. If no results display, learners have either not started the journey within the date range specified or have learning activity within the date range specified. Broaden your other filters if you think there should be activity for the selected journeys.
    • Journey Source: Select whether you want to see Skillsoft, custom or both types of journeys listed in your report.
    • Journey Type: Select whether you want to see Aspire Journeys or Certification Paths or both.
    • Language: Select the language for the journeys you want to see.

When journey progress tracking starts

In order to start tracking progress within a journey, learners must launch at least one item from within the journey or answer yes when prompted to start the journey. Scenarios for when journeys start tracking progress:

  • After learners answer yes to start a journey. This prompt displays only if learners previously launched content outside the journey.
  • After learners launch an item from within the journey, tracking of journey completion starts, and at that point learners can launch any journey item from search results or a channel and the progress counts toward track and journey completion.
  • If learners launch an item that is contained in a journey from search results or from a channel, without first launching any item from within the journey, the platform does not start tracking journey progress, only the progress of the individual item.
  • If learners previously completed any item contained in the journey, those completed items count towards the track and journey completion provided learners first launched an item from within the journey.
  • After learners launch content from within a journey, you see progress in all the journey reports.

Available Tabs

The Journey Activity report contains three tabs:

  • Summary: On the Summary tab you see a list of all journeys and high level usage metrics like unique learners accessing, total completions. You also see metrics about the journey itself like total tracks, total assets, and estimated duration. You only see journeys listed here that have had user activity within the date range specified.
  • By journey: On the By journey tab, you can expand the Journey title column to see a list of users who have accessed the journey and their progress through the journey. You can also see started dates, last accessed dates, and completion dates. You can select a user's name to see additional detail to the track and asset level including total learning hours and percent complete.
  • Journey detail: On this tab, you select one journey to view the details of who started each track, which assets they accessed and their percentage complete. If you need to see detail for more than one journey at a time, you can run the Journey Detailed Export report.
