Creating Survey Learning Components

To create survey learning components, use the Survey Definition (LM_SURVEY_DEFN) and Maintain Classes (LM_ACT) components.

Enterprise Learning Management also integrates with third-party survey engines to launch surveys and track completion status of the survey. Examples of survey learning components include:

  • Post-class survey to gather learner feedback on the effectiveness of the instructor, learning material, and overall class.

  • Learning component survey to gather learner feedback on the effectiveness of a particular learning component.
