At Click 4 Course, our mission is to provide a robust and user-friendly platform for creating and managing online courses. We continually listen to our users’ feedback to enhance our features and improve your experience. Today, we are excited to introduce our latest feature: Global Settings. This powerful new tool allows Admins to make one change that will apply to all courses and tests, significantly simplifying the management process and saving valuable time.

The Need for Global Settings

As the landscape of online education continues to evolve, efficiency and ease of use are more critical than ever. One of the challenges faced by course administrators is the time-consuming task of updating settings across multiple courses and tests. Previously, if an Admin wanted to make a universal change—such as adjusting the passing score requirements, modifying the number of times a Learner can take a course, or updating the certificate settings—they had to go through each course and test individually. This process was not only tedious but also prone to inconsistencies and errors.

Enter Global Settings—a feature designed to address these challenges head-on. With Global Settings, Admins can now implement changes across all courses and tests with a single action, ensuring consistency and saving substantial time and effort.

How Global Settings Work

The Global Settings feature is designed to be intuitive and straightforward. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to use it:

  1. Go to your Admin Portal: Log in to your Click 4 Course Admin account. In the dashboard, you will now see a new option for Global Course settings, as well as Global Test/Survey settings.
  2. Select the Settings to Change: To turn on a Global Setting, simply check the box on the left side of the screen. Then, choose whether you want that setting to be “on” of “off” on all courses, along with any other details and defaults for that setting
  3. Save Your Changes: Once you’ve made your changes, click the save button at the bottom of the screen.  Now, any new attempt at taking one of your courses and/or tests will be met with these new settings.

Benefits of Global Settings

  1. Time Efficiency: One of the most significant advantages of Global Settings is the time it saves. Admins no longer need to manually update each course and test, which can be particularly beneficial for organizations with a large number of courses.
  2. Consistency Across Courses: Ensuring that all courses and tests adhere to the same settings helps maintain a consistent learning experience. This is crucial for branding, grading standards, and overall user experience.
  3. Error Reduction: Manually updating each course and test increases the risk of errors and inconsistencies. Global Settings mitigate this risk by providing a single point of control.

Looking Forward

The introduction of Global Settings is just one of many enhancements we have planned for the Click 4 Course platform. We are committed to continuously improving our features based on your feedback to ensure we meet the evolving needs of online course providers.

We are excited to see how our Admins utilize this new feature to streamline their course management processes. As always, we welcome your feedback and suggestions for further improvements. Your insights are invaluable in helping us create a platform that truly supports your online course goals.

Conclusion

Global Settings is a game-changer for course administrators, providing a more efficient, consistent, and error-free way to manage online courses and tests. By allowing you to make one change that applies to all courses and tests, this feature significantly reduces the administrative burden and ensures a unified learning experience for all learners.
