What is the Learning Pathway Catalogue?
The Learning Pathway Catalogue allows learners to browse and self-allocate onto Learning Pathways. This feature is optional and disabled by default. Site administrators can enable it and then choose which specific Learning Pathways are available for self-allocation.
Once enabled, the Catalogue will display all Learning Pathways a learner has permission to view. Learners can choose to view more details or enrol themselves. Importantly, self-allocated pathways do not have due dates, meaning they won't interfere with your mandatory learning reports.
Info
When you enable Learning Pathway Catalogue all existing Learning Pathways will be set to prohibit self allocation & will not be displayed.

Initially the learner will see a new button at the bottom right hand corner of the Learning Pathway block called 'View catalogue'. This button goes to a dedicated catalogue page, allowing you to directly link to it from elsewhere if you wish (/blocks/pathway/catalog.php).
The Learning Pathway Catalogue page only displays Learning Pathways which are available for self allocation. All users are able to search from the Learning Pathway Catalogue.
The screenshot included shows the Learning Pathway Catalogue where the learner is already self allocated into the Cyber Security Learning Pathway.
The viewing details page shows the information for the Learning Pathway content, any descriptions, the allocation window and buttons to allow the Learner to allocate themselves onto the Learning Pathway.
