# Learning Completion Notifications

## Overview
Learning Completion Notifications let you control exactly who gets notified when a learner completes assigned content or a Learning Pathway. Previously, only the person who assigned the Learning received a completion notification. That worked well for smaller teams, but as organisations grow it becomes important to keep additional stakeholders informed — managers, instructors, or compliance teams. This feature gives you that flexibility, so the right people stay informed at the right time.

You can configure completion notifications in two places:

1. **Individual content assignments** (courses, documents, Forms, Events)
2. **Learning Pathways**

## Setting notifications for individual assignments
1. Navigate to the content you want to assign (for example a course, document, Form or Event).
2. Click **Assign to others**.
3. Select the learners or Team.
4. Click **Advanced**.
5. Find the **Notify on Completion** section.
6. Choose who should be notified:
    * **Notify manager on completion** — the learner's manager
    * **Choose specific people to notify** — named stakeholders, instructors or others
7. Complete the assignment as usual.

Once the learner completes the content, the selected recipients receive both an email notification and an in-app notification.

## Setting notifications for Learning Pathways
1. Open the Learning Pathway.
2. Go to **Pathway Settings**.
3. Find the **Notify on Completion** section.
4. Choose who should be notified:
    * **Notify manager on completion** — the learner's manager
    * **Choose specific people to notify** — any named users
5. Republish the Pathway.
6. Assign the Pathway to learners.

> **Note:** These notification settings apply to all future assignments of the Pathway once it's republished.

## Example use cases
* Notify a **compliance officer** when mandatory training is completed.
* Alert an **instructor** when learners finish a workshop.
* Keep **team managers** updated on onboarding progress.
* Inform **HR or L&D leaders** of certification completions.

## Things to keep in mind
* Recipients are notified both by email and in-app.
* For Pathways, the settings only take effect once you republish, and apply to future assignments.
* Anyone chosen as a recipient will be notified regardless of their role.

## Who can do this
Completion notifications are configured when you assign content or when you edit a Pathway, so they follow the same permissions as those actions. **Owners**, **Admins**, **Managers**, **People Managers** and **Instructors** can set them when assigning content. Setting them in **Pathway Settings** is available to **Owners**, **Admins**, **Managers**, **Content Managers** and **Instructors**. **Employees** and **Restricted** users cannot configure completion notifications.
