In PayPeople LMS, a group is a collection of users who are organized together for the purpose of course assignments, reporting, and management. Groups offer a convenient way to administer training to specific subsets of users and to track their progress collectively.
How to Work with Groups?
PayPeople LMS lets you organize your users in groups and assign one or more courses to all group members with a single click.
To create your first group, follow these steps:
- Sign in to your PayPeople LMS account as Administrator, go to Groups, and click Create e New button.
Note: Instructors can also access groups from their dashboard.
- Type a distinct Name (e.g., Startup courses) and a Description for your new group.
- If you want users to register themselves to the group, simply click Group key to generate a self-registration key.
- Then, send the Group key to users along with the simple instructions on how to self-register. (You’ll find instructions at the end of this article.)
Note: You can replace the generated key by typing your own key in the Group key field.
- If you want to sell courses associated with the group as a course bundle, click Price and type your preferred amount.
- Click Add group to complete the process.
- After the new group has been added, you’re automatically taken to the Users tab on the group page. To add a user to your group, just click the respective add symbol to add employee and minus symbol to remove employee in the Options column.
Note: If you have sent a Group key to the users you want in the group, there’s no need to add them manually.
