Overview

Learning Notes let you capture your thoughts, key takeaways and reminders directly against a Pathway as you work through it. Keeping your notes alongside the Pathway makes note-taking more integrated and efficient, and gives you somewhere to look back on what you learnt. This article covers adding a Learning Note to a Pathway in My Learning.

How to add a Learning Note

1. Open My Learning from the main navigation.

2. Use the search bar to find the Pathway you want to add notes to, then open it.

3. Once inside the Pathway, click the Learning Notes icon in the top right-hand corner.

4. Click New Note.

5. Give your note a title (optional) and use the rich text editor to write down your learnings. In the top right of the window you can also print your note or pop it out into its own window for easier writing.

6. When you've finished, click Add Note to save it against the Pathway.

Good to know: Your notes are private to you and are saved against the Pathway, so you can reopen the Learning Notes panel any time to read or update them.

Things to keep in mind

• A note title is optional — you can save a note with just its content.
• Notes are tied to the Pathway you created them on and appear whenever you reopen it.
• You can create as many notes as you like on a Pathway, and edit or delete them later from the Learning Notes panel.

FAQs

Where are my Learning Notes saved?
Against the Pathway you created them on. Open the Pathway from My Learning and click the Learning Notes icon to see them again.

Can I edit or delete a note later?
Yes. Reopen the Learning Notes panel on the Pathway, open the note, and either update its content or delete it.

Can anyone else see my notes?
Your Learning Notes are personal to you. A People Manager, Admin or Owner may review notes as part of a learner's record, but other learners cannot see them.

Who can do this

Any learner can add Learning Notes to the Pathways assigned to them — this includes Employees, Restricted users and every other role. In addition, a learner's People Manager, and Admins and Owners, can add notes on that learner's behalf.
