Settings for the left navigation bar on Learn365 My Training Dashboard

Introduction

As an LMS admin, you can choose to show or hide My Training Dashboard sections for all users and add more navigation links to the left navigation bar.

This article describes how to configure the left navigation bar on My Training Dashboard via Settings.

 

Show or hide sections

Required role: LMS admin.

From the Settings section of My Training Dashboard, you can show or hide sections and add, edit, or delete links to control the navigation elements of the left navigation bar of My Training Dashboard.

 

IMPORTANT   

  • The display order of the sections on My Training Dashboard can't be changed.
  • Changes are applied for all users in the course catalog.
  • All changes to the Settings of My Training Dashboard are applied to and affect only the page where the My Training Dashboard web part is added. For example, if you employ My Training Dashboard in both Microsoft Teams and Microsoft SharePoint, you'll have to make changes in both places in order to deliver the same experience across the applications.

 

To configure the display of sections, follow these steps:

1. On the left navigation bar of My Training Dashboard, select Settings.

2. On the opened Settings panel, choose the sections you want to show or hide by selecting or clearing the checkboxes next to the relevant sections. 

The following sections can be managed from the Settings section:

  • Overview
  • Course catalog
  • Skills.
  • Certificates.
  • Transcript
  • CEUs.
  • Leaderboard

 

NOTE   

In the Learn365 app in Microsoft Teams, the Leaderboard section is turned off by default. You can enable it in the Settings section of My Training Dashboard in Teams. Changes you make to My Training Dashboard in Teams are applied to all users and all My Training Dashboard web parts in the tenant's Teams application.
