New course settings
There seem to be an awful lot of new settings that appeared against courses without our administrators being notified.
I'm particularly concerned by 'Allow self-enroll' which seems toggled off by default when previously our learners were always able to self-enroll on courses if they were set to 'Available in Library' for their group. Is there a way to set this to be toggled on as default, or are we going to have to manually go through all our courses and toggle this on?
Additionally, the new 'Handling Completed Unknown' field that has appeared is confusing for us with relation to our SCORM courses. Some of our courses don't contain a quiz, so our current guidance for admins is to set passing score as '0'. The elearning is then set to send completion status to the LMS as 'Complete/Incomplete' rather than 'Passed/Failed' with a score. This has worked for us. But now if I set '0' as passing score (since it doesnt apply) I'm unable to set the new field to '100%'. How should this work?
Thanks
Em

Hi Emily, I believe the 'allow self-enroll' toggle is to allow learners to manually re-enroll in the course. I think that it means if someone has taken the course and that feature is enabled, they can select to enroll in the course again. We do not have this setting turned on and learners are able to complete courses/find courses in the library and view the course after completing, but not 'retake' or 're-enroll'
Hi, Emily Gallichan! Katie is correct in that the "allow self-enroll" toggle allows learners to manually re-enroll in the course. It was a change we made to vocabulary where it previously said "learner re-enroll," which we felt was confusing and misleading. This has always been default to off. Setting relevance of learnables and categories to "in the learning library" will still expose content for self-enrollment through that page.
As far as SCORM settings, we introduced a new setting to Bridge that would tell Bridge how to handle a SCORM course with no score and no success state sent. There's two options for the author to choose from. If you are having issues with the new SCORM settings, I would recommend submitting a support ticket to support@bridgeapp.com and we'll be happy to help.
Thanks both, that's reassuring and makes sense re: the self enroll field. Personally I found the phrasing 'allow re-enroll' much clearer than 'allow self enroll'. Having the latter toggled off with that phrasing suggests to me that the learner couldn't self-enroll on the course if it were available to them in the library.
Re: new SCORM setting, hopefully this wouldn't apply to us then as the eLearning would always be set to at least return a 'Complete/Incomplete' status. The field only allows me to select '0%' anyway. Nothing stays selected when I click '100%'.
Thanks for both your help.
