In this article you will learn how to set up your profile when you visit the tool for the first time. After setting up your profile, you can start learning on 5miles.
When you access the tool for the first time, you will be guided step by step through the process of setting up your profile in the way you find most comfortable.
Have you set it up already and want to know how you can change these settings later? We suggest to read this article.
Set up your profile
Once you have created your account, you will be shown how to set up your profile step by step in the way that suits your needs. Everything you set up here can be adjusted later.
Click on the orangje button 'Start' to start setting up your profile. We recommend that you do this so that your learning journey is tailored to your skill level and preferences.
Already familiar with 5miles and want to start learning right away? Then click 'here' in the paragraph below the orange button.
Select the program you want to start with
Then you can select the subject you want to start learning. You choose one subject here, but you can always switch to another programme later on.
The way of learning
Next, you will be asked how you would like to improve your skills. Here you can choose:
Structured approach: This means that you learn according to a so-called standard curriculum. You follow a certain learning path that is meant to master a certain level.
Focus on a topic: this means that you choose a specific topic in which you want to improve within an Office-program.
Choose the track you want to start with
After choosing a subject and a learning method, you will be asked which track you want to start with. Click on a track and click ‘Next’ to continue.
Please note! This is what it looks like if you choose Power BI as your topic. If you choose another topic, the steps to set up your profile may look different.
Choose when you want to learn
The last step in setting up your profile is to choose when you want to learn. Click on the days and times when you want to receive an email with a new challenge. This can be any day of the week in the morning, but as shown in the example, you can change it to suit your needs.
