Journeys
Journeys are structured learning paths. Journeys contain one or more tracks, which contain all of the required learning content for a specific topic. A journey may also contain introductory or supporting resources as optional content to assist you. To complete a journey, you must complete each item within all of the tracks.
There are three kinds of journeys within Percipio:
- Aspire Journeys are guided learning paths designed and published by Skillsoft. The learning path comprises tracks of content in a recommended order. Completing all content within a track, completes the track. Completing all tracks within the journey, completes the journey.
- Custom journeys are guided learning paths that you create for your company using content published to Percipio including both Skillsoft and custom content.
- Career Journeys are bundles of specially curated Aspire Journeys that contain additional content items ensuring you can retain and apply your new skills on the job. Some Career Journeys might have live courses, labs, and mentors, others might have test preps and projects, all have instructional variety and reporting to provide a scalable way to upskill in specific areas. Your admins can purchase a Career Journey as an add-on for an additional fee and then license it to a specific group of users.

Going through a journey
The way the journey was designed determines how it displays for you.
When you open a journey, you may see a message indicating that the journey is part of a learning program. A learning program is where you have a shared learning experience with others who are also enrolled in the program. Your administrator may automatically enroll you in a learning program and require you to complete it, or they may invite you to enroll in the learning program that you can choose to complete if you want. If you are invited to a learning program or discover a learning program configured for self enrollment, you must enroll to have that shared experience, however, you can complete a journey without enrolling in the learning program it is associate with.
To check if you are automatically enrolled or invited to enroll, select View all Programs. On this page, you see all learning programs where this journey was added. You can review all the learning programs to decide if you want to enroll in one or complete the journey independently of the program.
Whether you open a journey on the journey page or through a learning program, you could see one of two display styles. The style you see is determined by how the journey was created.
- With the Simple display style, you see the journey and all its tracks on a single page and single videos play inline, other content opens in its respective player. You can expand and collapse the tracks to show the content within them. You can see your progress through the track with the completion rings on the left.
- With the Classic display style, you see the journey with its list of tracks on one page. When you select a track, it opens in a separate page and when selected, each content item opens in its own player. You can see your progress through the track with the completion rings on the right.
If your admin has enabled them, you can earn:
- Digital Badges for completing a track
- Digital Badges for completing a journey
- Completion certificates for completing a journey
