Understanding Course Settings In Ving

Course Settings Allow You To Control How Your Training Is Assigned, Tracked, And Accessed. Here’s What Each Setting Does And How It Impacts Your Training Process.

Managing your training requirements is simple once you understand the settings. Here, you can decide who needs a requirement, when notifications are sent, and how assignments repeat automatically. It’s important to know that any updates you make will immediately affect active assignments—unless you’ve already updated them manually.

This article will walk you through each setting so you know exactly how they work and how they impact your team’s training.

ACTIVE

  • Yes → The course is visible and available to assigned viewers.

  • No → The course is no longer available to viewers.

Learn more about how to make a course active.

Notifications

When enabled, the contact owner will receive inactivity alerts — for example:

"Karen was invited to Driver Safety 4 days ago and has not started it."

Learn more about course notifications.

Required

  • Required → This course affects the contact sentiment colors on your home page.

  • Not Required → Ideal for optional courses; will not impact sentiment colors.

Learn more about making a course required.

Repeat In

(Only available when “Required” is set to Yes)

  • Allows a course to repeat automatically every day, month, or year.

  • The new assignment is based on the original assign date.

  • If the reassignment date is:

    • Within the last 14 days → Course reassigns today.

    • More than 14 days ago → That date is skipped.

  • Changes made to reassignment dates via import will not be updated here — they must be re-imported.

Learn more about making your courses automatically repeat.

Enforced Order

  • Requires learners to complete course components in order.

  • Learners must score at least 60% on each test before moving on.

  • If they don’t, they’re prompted to review the related lesson before retaking the test.
