In UKG Pro Learning, members with Admin rights or group creators with the Assign Training permission can assign curricula to Academy groups.
An Admin can select any of the existing academy groups while a manager can select only the groups that they have created.
Upon assignment, some individuals are automatically excluded from the To assign list based on:
- If an Admin assigns a curriculum to a group that he is also a member of, he will be excluded from the To assign list.
- If a Group Creator assigns a course to a group, the system excludes automatically the individuals that this Group Creator has no permission to assign to.
- If an individual - member of a group is already enrolled in the selected course, he will not be included in the To assign list.
