The path automatically saves the new step.

If a learner is registered to several sessions of the same path or program, or if they can access several sessions from their Catalog, clicking on the program or path from the original path will redirect them to the session where their completion rate is highest, or (in case of equality) to the session that started most recently.

Other things to remember when adding steps:

• Course: The path will make courses available to enrolled learners when they reach the step (linear paths) or at enrollment (non-linear paths).
• Classroom: The path will allow learners who self-enroll to the path through the catalog to select a classroom slot. For learners that are enrolled directly into the path, the author needs to add them to a classroom slot.
• Path: For learners to access and complete paths that you add as a path step, enroll them in one of the path sessions or add that path to their group catalog. Otherwise, they will get stuck on that step.
• Program: For learners to access and complete programs that you add as a path step, assign learners to one of its sessions or add it to their group catalog). Otherwise, they will get stuck on that step.
• Assessment: When a learner has completed the step right before the assessment in linear and non-linear paths, the assessor needs to check the learner's work. Assessors receive a notification when a learner reaches the Assessment step.

Edit path step options

Platform Admins, Group Admins, Authors, and co-authors can edit path step options.

Relative due dates are displayed in the dashboard of paths statistics (to help identify learners who fell behind), in the path page (on each step), and in the homepage if the path is displayed there. If the path contains several steps with relative due dates, we display on the homepage the date that is the furthest away.
