The progress of a learning track is calculated based on the status and progress of its courses. Let's see how a learning track's progress is calculated.

  1. The maximum learning track's progress is 100%.

  2. The maximum course contribution (or МАХ COURSE CONTRIBUTION) is calculated according to the following formula: 100% / NUMBER OF COURSES IN A TRACK.

    Thus, if a learning track has 4 courses, the maximum contribution of each course is 25%.

  3. After a course has been taken by the learner, the track's progress increases by a certain percent.

    Course StatusCourse Contribution
    Not Started0%
    In Progress0.01 COURSE PROGRESS x МАХ COURSE CONTRIBUTION
    Failed0.01 x COURSE PROGRESS x МАХ COURSE CONTRIBUTION
    Passed0.01 x COURSE PROGRESS x МАХ COURSE CONTRIBUTION
    Incomplete0.01 x COURSE PROGRESS x МАХ COURSE CONTRIBUTION
    Completed0.01 x COURSE PROGRESS x МАХ COURSE CONTRIBUTION


  4. Let's take the example of a learning track that includes 4 courses. The maximum contribution of each course is 25%.

    1. The user has completed the first course, and its status is Completed.
      Its contribution to the total track's progress is 25%.

    2. The second course hasn't been taken to the end. Thus, the course status is In Progress (42.9% viewed).
      The contribution to the total track's progress is calculated according to the following formula: 0.01 x COURSE PROGRESS x МАХ COURSE CONTRIBUTION.
      Learn how to calculate a course's progress in the Calculating a Course's Progress article.

      0.01 x 42.9% x 25% = 10.725%

      We will round off the resulting digit to the nearest tenth and, as a result, the contribution of the second course is 10.7%.
      At this point, then, the track's total progress is 35.7%.

    3. The status of the third course is Incomplete. The contribution to the track's total progress is calculated according to the following formula: 0.01 x COURSE PROGRESS x МАХ COURSE CONTRIBUTION.

      0.733 x 25% = 18.325%

      The contribution to the track's total progress is rounded up to 18.3%.
      So far, the track's total progress is 54%.

    4. The user hasn't opened the fourth course yet and its status is still Not Started.
      Consequently, the contribution to the total track's progress is 0%.

      Thus, the final progress of the learning track is 54%.



  5.  A track's progress can be checked with the help of reports. You can, for example, view the Learner Progress in a Learning Track report.


Important:

  1.  If you change the status of a course or a module manually, the track's total progress will be recalculated.

  2. Even if the learner has completed all courses (successfully or not), the learning track's progress may not achieve 100%. 

    This is because a course's progress can be lower than 100%, which will not allow the track's progress to reach 100%.
    Here’s an example of such a course:

    • Quiz 1 (Passed 100/90)
    • Dialog 2 (Passed 85/85)
    • Quiz 3 (Failed 70/90)
    (0.01 x 100% x 33,3%) + (0.01 x 85% x 33,3%) + (0.01 x 70% x 33,3%) = 84,9%
