By default, courses generally have completion tracking enabled, but the criteria for completing a course has not been set. If you need to track completion of courses, you must set the course completion criteria. The criteria can include meeting an activity's minimum grade level, getting a "passed" or "completed" message from a SCORM file, or even manually ticking the checkbox on the course outline page.
To set the criteria for course completion:
- Find the course in question using the course catalogue or search tool
- Once in the course, click on Course administration > Course completion (see note 1)
- Set the conditions (see note 2)
- Click on the "Save changes" button at the bottom of the page
Note 1: If the Course administration > Course completion link is not visible, it's because the course itself has completion tracking disabled. To enable completion tracking, go in the settings page for the course and in the "Completion tracking" section, select "Yes".
Note 2: The most common way to track completion is to select the activities that need to be completed in the "Condition: Activity completion" section of the page. If this section is empty, it's because the activities themselves do not have any completion criteria. Refer to "Tracking Progress" to set the completion criteria for individual activities.
