Nomenclature

In our Learning Management System (LMS):

Instructors are referred to as “Group Leaders.”
Learners in your course are part of “Groups.”

Unless otherwise arranged, you are currently NOT designated as a “Group Leader.” We do this so you see exactly what your learner will see. However, if at this point you want to be designated now as Group Leader in the LMS, so you can see how it works with your information, you may contact steve.carlson@pdpglobal.com and request that change.

Gradebook Instructions

As a Group Leader, you have access to a Gradebook about your learners. Think of the Gradebook as a place where you can find transcripts and information about what your learners are doing in the eCampus. Among other bits of information, you can learn from the gradebook the following information about your learners:

Results (of test Scores): You can see how many times a learner has taken a test and what percentages they received. (NOTE: In this eCertification, learners may retake the test as many times as they wish until they pass the test/quiz)
Timing: You can see how long they have been in the course and in each lesson.
Dates: You can see when they first started and the last time they were in the course.
Progress: You can see how many lessons and which lessons they have successfully completed.

Click Gradebook Instructions for more detailed information about how to operate the grade book. If you want to begin, you can start below.

The following is what your learners will experience in the PDP Professional eCertification Course.

The following information will be the same as what your learners will see. If you have questions or comments, please contact steve.carlson@pdpglobal.com

Perfect Blend

Eleven different lessons make up the course content (see below). Some of the lessons combine two or more modules. Each module corresponds to a tab in your PDP Manual. The course is designed so that you can follow along in your manual as you complete this course on-line. The progress bar to the right keeps track of which lessons you have completed. When you click on a lesson, you will be brought to a page where you can launch an interactive presentation, which opens up in a new window or overlay. It will be important for you to close that window/overlay and return to the eCampus after you are done with that presentation in order to take the quiz or continue on. In all but the final lesson (i.e. “Modules 13-15”), you will be required to complete and pass the quiz. If you exit the course part way through, your place will be saved for you for when you return.
