Q.- Could milestones be used as a form of tracking paperwork? For instance, when doing a Manual Handling Instructor course, a project is expected 2 weeks later, can this then be ticked off?
A.– Absolutely – this is a good example of milestone use! Milestones can be assigned to specific lesson or event of the course (or even before course – sending packs to Students to complete or collect information about exciting certificates).

Q- What would you advise is the best manner in receiving student details? We run a lot of private courses for companies and so would have no contact with the student until the first morning
A.- With the new mobile application, the tutor will be able to change the learners on a course, that means, if someone does not turn up, they can delete one and add one. There is an option to set up an information collection milestone before course first day. There is Learner Feedback channel set up for every Student on course, so it can be used to collect Students information
Q.- When a student is marked as ‘Dropped Out’ will they be removed as a student from the student list?
A.- No, but will be redlined from Reports.
