Activity Reports: How can I see if staff are actually studying?

Looking at student Activity Reports might give you the information you are after. To see this info, you can follow these steps.

1. Log in to our website, locate ES02, ES06 or ES05 listed under “My Courses” and click “view course” to go to the course homepage.
2. Click on the course navigation menu on the left hand side, in the dropdown menu click on “Participants” to bring up a list of enrolled staff.
3. You can use the drop-down menu to display staff in your different departments. Or use the alphabet firstname/lastname to filter your list to be able to find the particular person you are looking for.
4. Click on their name and it should load their profile.
5. You then can click on the settings gear on the right hand side of the students account and the menu will show up and you can click on any of the lists under "reports". By clicking on “Complete Report” you will be able to view the activities of the students. 

It can be a fine line to walk between ensuring staff are complying and creating stress, pressure or extra work for yourself (and them) needlessly. Similar to conferences or in-person courses, you unfortunately have the occasional participant that doesn't pay attention, or leaves the conference early and still claims they attended all sessions.

You may consider ensuring that their compliance is outlined in any staff contract or honesty policy your workplace has. You might even consider being upfront with staff when you enroll them to let them know that you will monitor their completion and progress on a 3 or 6-monthly basis for all staff.
