As an Administrator, Training Manager, or a Manager with the “Limit Access” permission enabled, you can restrict your hourly employees’ access to training based on their location. This helps you ensure that the right training is available to the right people, depending on where they work. For step-by-step instructions on how to set this up, please refer to the article “Limiting Access to Training Based on Location”.
Once the configuration has been completed as outlined in the article above, learners can verify whether they have access to a specific course by using the following URL:
https://app.schoox.com/course/check_ip.php?cid=XXX
Before sharing this link, make sure you replace XXX with the actual Course ID. You can find the Course ID either in the course URL in your browser or by generating a Courses Info report and adding the Course ID as an additional field.
Here is an example of the information that will be displayed on the course page when accessed via this link, in cases where the user’s access to the course is restricted based on your configuration:
On the left side of the screen, learners can confirm whether the course is configured with restricted access to specific units, verify their classification as hourly workers within the academy, and determine whether they are eligible for access based on their associated units.
If learners are not eligible for access based on the defined unit criteria, a “BLOCK ACCESS” message will be displayed. Based on these conditions, the system determines the final result, showing either “BLOCK ACCESS” if no units grant access, or “ALLOW ACCESS” if the criteria to access the training are met.
If users do not meet the required access criteria, they will encounter a message when attempting to access the course indicating that they do not have permission to view the training and are unable to proceed from their current location.
If access is granted and no restrictions apply, learners can use the URL to confirm that they are allowed to access the course, as an “ALLOW ACCESS” message will be displayed.
