Get to know Home for learners
Home is the main page for learners to track their progress through their training.
Availability: all customers
Home and My learning combined
In September 2026 LearnUpon changed the learner view to combine Home and the former My learning into a single Home for learners.
This improved Home design:
- shares vital information about learners' enrollments through a sidebar
- displays learners' progress and current statuses through courses and, when in use, learning journeys and learning paths
- provides access to External training and Skills, when these features are available in the portal
See learning journeys from Home
When your organization uses learning journeys, Home includes them on both Home, and in the sidebar.
Similar to courses, Home positions any In progress learning journeys first. If learners have no learning journeys In progress they see the Enrolled journeys in Not started status.
The following GIF gives an overview of a learner’s Home with its navigation tools and progress details all viewable from 1 page.
Banners
Banners can feature current messages to learners, calls to action and reminders.
See Set up banners for learners' Home page and the catalog
A streamlined sidebar for finding current content
Learners have a navigation sidebar that makes current content easy to find. The sidebar identifies content as either Enrolled or Completed.
Selecting content by Enrolled or Completed status opens the relevant dashboards within Home, so learners can view and filter their content further.
Note: the sidebar shows only the content and statuses turned on for the portal.
To give learners access to the following features, your admin needs to turn them on at the portal level:
- learning journeys
- learning paths
- external training records
- skills
The following screenshot shows a learner’s sidebar with navigation elements to reach content. In this example a learner selected My Courses > Enrolled to access their course enrollments.
Of their 9 courses, they have 2 at In progress status and 7 in Not started status. Selecting the status tabs displays the courses in their associated statuses.
Learner sidebar is on the Home only
The navigation sidebar appears on Home only, to access courses and, when available, features like learning journeys, learning paths, external credits and skills.
For the courses, learning journeys and learning paths, learners can select 1 of:
- Enrolled: to view the statuses for current content
- Completed: to view the statuses for completed content
These content dashboards open within Home, taking you directly to the relevant content.
Each Enrolled and Completed page includes a search field, and filters for categories and live sessions to help learners find their content.
Cards for the courses, learning journeys and learning paths include:
- content title
- thumbnail image
- number of modules completed, and number of total modules
- a progress bar for a quick view of progress
- time required for the content, defined by the customer in the course details, or a module count
- any relevant live learning - a coming date and time, or a notification about registration
- any relevant date - enrollment date or due date, depending on the course
Select a card to continue training
When a learner selects content at In progress status, the course, learning journey or learning path opens immediately where they left off.
When a learner selects content in Not started, Completed or Requested status, the application opens the relevant Content details.
View Enrolled training
Selecting Enrolled for any content displays the cards for courses, learning journeys or learning paths where the learner is enrolled. The content appears in the relevant dynamic tabs:
- All - sum of all content at In progress, Not started, Requested, Pending review statuses, plus Reattempts if applicable
- In progress - learner has started but not finished all modules or courses
- Not started - learner is enrolled but not selected Start
- Requested - learner requested enrollment, that is not yet approved
- Pending review - a course has an assignment, checklist or scorable module that requires instructor or admin action
- Reattempts - where a learner failed a scorable module like an exam, and has attempts remaining
For courses that require live learning registrations, a banner appears on the Enrolled page as a reminder. Learners can dismiss it for a session. It reappears at the next session, as long as registration is required.
View Completed training
Selecting Completed for any content opens the courses, learning journeys or learning paths where the learner has completed training. The content appears in the relevant dynamic tabs:
- All - sum of all content at Completed, Passed, Failed statuses
- Completed - all modules finished, including courses with no scored components
- Passed - scorable modules the learner passed
- Failed - where a learner failed a scorable module, and no re-attempts are available
