Direct link in emails to open My Learning

An email can be configured in CKLS to offer a one-click link to download and connect to my learning.

The link is inserted using a keyword in the email: My Learning auto-connection link.

Behavior on the learner side:

  • If My Learning ≥ 2.5 is already installed on the mobile device, the link launches the App, and the Learner is logged on My Learning.
  • If My Learning is not installed on the mobile device, it redirects the learner to the store download page.

Proceed as follows:

  1. Tap the link to download and install My Learning.
  2. When installed, tap the link again to benefit from the single sign-on login.

Android and iOS

When Enable the sending of push notifications to the application users is active, push notifications are sent to the learner if the two following conditions are fulfilled:

  1. The learner has not logged on to the platform (via desktop, mobile, or My Learning app) for 7 days.
  2. The learner has some incomplete Blendedˣ training courses.

On a regular basis, the back-office checks if the user has unfinished training not accessed for more than days:

  1. If the learner has one pending training, they will receive a "You have one pending course: %training_title" message, where %training_title is the training title.
  2. If the learner has more than one, they will receive a "You have %number pending courses" message, where %number is the number of courses.

If the learner has multiple devices connected to My Learning, all the learner devices will receive the notification.

This option can be enabled in CKLS BO Setup > Deployment > Functional & display options.
