This article is a quick look at what you can see and do when you're learning with iQualify. We've tried to keep this as a one-page overview, so we've included links out to more information throughout if you need it.

Courses within iQualify can have their own specific setups

Remember each course can be set up a little differently by the organisation and/or facilitator you're learning with, so you might not see exactly everything we've listed here.

Note: For any help that is course related (assessments, content etc.) please contact your learning provider directly.

Course cards and dashboards

When you're learning with iQualify, you'll see course cards on your dashboard - your current, upcoming or past courses.

 Image shows the learners dashboard.

We've added some shortcuts to the cards to take you to commonly used areas: The course Overview, your Notes, Talk, or to pick up where you left off, continue course.

Navigating through a course

Watch our support video below and following information to see what you may find in your course and how to get there!

Once you're in a course, you can use Contents to take you to a specific page in a course.

Using Search

You can use the Search to find pages with particular terms.

Screenshot showing how to use the search feature in your course.

My tasks list

The Tasks list is a handy way to jump straight to the "doing" parts of your course. Here you can:

  • see what you've got left to submit,

  • view previous submissions, and

  • see feedback from a facilitator under VIEW (if applicable).

Image shows the My tasks area.

Creating your own notes

You can add some notes or reflections in your own words. Simply select the speech bubble icon next to a paragraph (or task, or video etc.) and make your note. Your notes are private to you, only you have access to them. You also have the option to tag your notes, type your tag in and hit enter to save them. This allows you to group your notes e.g planets, the sun.

Notes are collated from all across the course, so this is a handy spot to revisit for a quick reminder or some revision before an assessment. You can find all your notes by navigating to the Notes menu item.

Connecting with others

In some courses, you'll be able to chat with others in the same class as you, including your facilitator.

Talk channels

Talk channels (like a forum) let you add a post to a particular topic.

Or, you might be able to contact your facilitator privately.

Choosing the "Facilitator support" option under "Talk" > "Private channels".

Social notes

In the section above we covered making your own notes. You can also make your notes social and visible to others in your group using Discuss this.

End of page discussion

Some pages may also have a discussion at the bottom of the page. These discussion areas are a way to briefly share your thoughts on a specific discussion question/prompt within the content.


Make the most of your learning!

You can look back at your learning in past courses forever. Leverage these notes and post features to make the course your own. Greater contributions tend to lead to better learning and achievement. Build a rich personal landscape that you can look back on whenever you want to remind yourself of what you’ve learned and what you’ve achieved.
