Totara OJT activity

This is a module plug-in for the Totara Learning Management System (https://www.totaralms.com/solutions/totara-lms). It adds functionality for defining, tracking and signing-off on on-job-training (OJT). As well as user and manager interfaces, reports are also available to provide an organisational view of overall progress.

The OJT module allows a course administrator to create a checklist of topics and topic items. As soon as all required topic items are 'checked' the topic becomes complete.

Each topic can be configured to:

• be optional
• have current course competencies linked to it
• have overall comments

Each topic item can be configured to:

• be optional
• allow file uploads by evaluator
• allow file uploads by OJT owner

An OJT activity can then be further configured to have:

• manager signoff (a manager will get a task notification - upon topic completion - to go and sign off on a topic)
• and/or topic item completion witnessing

Activity completion can also be enabled, based on the completion of all topics (and, if enabled, item witnessing).

The following capabilities currently exist for the module:

• View
• Evaluate
• Evaluate self
• Manage
• Sign-off
• Witness topic completion

From the above, it becomes clear that quite a few work flows can be configured for this activity.

The actual evaluation page then allows the relevant user to either view completion, or evaluate/witness by checking the topic item checkboxes. Each topic item also has a 'notes' box, that can be used by the person performing the evaluation.

Lastly, an OJT Completion Totara report source exists, which is also used in an embedded form by the module.
