iQualify has notifications for a range of activities in iQualify whether you are a learner, facilitator, author, or reviewer.
In-app notifications
A green dot next to the bell icon will show if you have any unread notifications for your courses.
When you select the bell to open it, you will see your latest five notifications but you can choose to load more, clear individual messages or clear all. Selecting the link in the notification will take you directly to where the activity is happening so you can see more.
Talk notifications
A green dot will appear next to the talk icon in the main course navigation to show if there are any unread talk channel posts or responses.
Email/SMS Notifications
Aside from in-app notifications, you can receive email and SMS notifications if you choose to subscribe to one or either option. You can set your preferences for receiving notifications in your My Account area.
