Using the Pathway Treeview

In this article, we will learn how to work with the pathway treeview. This module will be discussed from an Administrator’s perspective.

Accessing the Learning Pathway Module

Log into the Signify system. From the Home page navigate to the System Administration link in the left-hand menu. Navigate to the Maintain Learning Pathway module by using either of the paths shown below.

Working with the Treeview

Pathways are automatically grouped by their placement on the pathway tree structure. Recently functionality was added, which allows the user to drag a pathway to a new tree node or category.

The tree structure consists of Categories and Pathways. The Pathway Treeview is illustrated below.
