Learning Plan Data Source

The Learning Plan Data Source is a curated selection of LMS data that enables you to create Reports on the progress and objectives completion of learner plans. Relevant items in this Data Source include the Plan Status, Competency Due Date, Competency Reason For Decision, Objective Achieved, Objective Approval, Program Priority, and the Manual Objective of users in courses.

The Learning Plan Data Source is located in the Public folder in the Zoola™ Repository. To locate the Data Source in either the Repository or the Data Chooser (when selecting a Data Source to create an Ad Hoc View), navigate to Public > Totara > Data Sources.

This Data Source contains LMS data organized to report on the plan progress of learners in your courses. “Plan Progress” information consists of measures and fields that track the progress, status, and objectives of learner plans, such as progress status, objective approvals, and program priorities. Using fields and measures from the six sets included in this Data Source, you can easily build out Reports and Views to track the progress of learning plans for users in your courses.

The links along the right-hand side of this article will open the Learner Plan Progress Chart View, Learning Plan Progress Table View, Objectives Progress Chart View, and the Objectives Progress Table View, respectively. If you are logged in to Zoola™, these views will open in the Ad Hoc Editor. The left-hand View panel will display the contents of the Learning Plan Data Source, organized into sets of items (as both fields and measures).

All included sets are comprised of selections from the tables listed in the Totara table, located at the end of the right-hand column.

Specifically, the Learning Plan Data Source is comprised of the following sets:

• Course: Items (fields and measures) in the Courses set provide naming and categorization data for your LMS courses.

• User: Items in the User set provide user identification information, such as user ID's, names, locations, and other LMS profile-related data.
