Due dates help your team stay aligned, accountable, and confident in what to focus on next. When expectations are clear, important training and compliance tasks are completed on time - streamlining onboarding, closing knowledge gaps, and supporting team performance.

Whether you're onboarding new hires or managing compliance training, due dates ensure that nothing slips through the cracks.

Deadlines only apply to team members who have Require Completion enabled for the document or learning path.


Using Specific Dates

Use Specific Dates when training must be completed by a fixed deadline - like before launching a new tool or meeting a compliance requirement.

To set a specific due date on a document:

  1. Open the document settings.

  2. Toggle the due date setting on.

  3. Select Specific Date.

  4. Choose a date from the calendar.

Once set, team members with Require Completion enabled will see this deadline clearly reflected in their dashboard.


Using Relative Dates

Relative Dates are ideal for onboarding, helping new team members know exactly when they’re expected to complete key content - based on when they gain access.

To set a relative due date on a document:

  1. Open the document settings.

  2. Toggle the due date setting on.

  3. Select Relative Date.

  4. Set the number of days, weeks, or months the user has to complete it after access.

These deadlines apply only to members with Require Completion enabled. Due dates also appear in the Start Here widget to guide progress.


Learning Path Deadlines

Keep structured learning on pace by setting deadlines for each stage of a learning path.

To set a deadline for a Learning Path:

  1. Open the learning path settings.

  2. Toggle Enable Deadline on.

  3. Choose the time frame (days, weeks, or months) to complete each step after access.

As with documents, these apply to members with Require Completion enabled -helping your team move through training consistently and confidently.
