Student Progress Tracking
To assist schools with workload and capacity planning for instructors we have the ability to link students to specific instructors, and to track the current progress and anticipated completion date of student advancement.
Specifying an instructor
On the “Instructors” listing there is a new menu option called “Students”. This will take you to a listing of the specific students allocated to that particular instructor, as indicated in the following figure.
Clicking on the "Students" link next to an instructor will lead to a screen listing the students currently linked to that instructor, and on this screen you can search for a new student and click the button to add that student to the current instructor. Please note that a student can only be linked to one instructor at a time - if you link a student to an instructor that student will automatically be removed from any other instructor that this student was linked to before.
To remove a student from an instructor click the button or simply link the student to another instructor (students can only be linked to one instructor at a time).
Students can also be linked to an instructor under the “School details” section of the “Members” record for that student.
Specifying a Level of Instruction
Click on the “Edit” button to make changes to the type of instruction that the student is currently receiving. This button takes you to the “Student Training” dialog box, as indicated in the diagram to the right. On this screen you can specify if the student is part-time or full-time as well as adjusting the “Goals and Progress” for the level of instruction that the student is currently receiving.
To start the student on a certain level of instruction, tick the box in the “Start” column. Once training has started (but has not yet ended) you can enter a “Target Date” for the anticipated completion of the specific level of training.
Once the student completed a level of training, click on the “End” tick-box to have the level closed off.
Displaying Instruction Progress
If a student is linked to an instructor and has a level of instruction loaded, then these details are displayed as part of the Green Tag process. This is to allow the student to get regular reminders of their targeted completion dates for their current training level.
