Before lessons can be created, a project must exist.

To create lessons

  1. In the navigation bar, click Lessons
    ​

  2. Click New Lessons
    ​

Note: There are two ways to create lessons.


Auto-generate lessons

This is a great way to create lessons based off of existing project documentation or artifacts, such as meeting notes, transcripts, non-conformance reports. Documentation that you already have through your project life cycle

  1. Select a project (Required)
    ​

  2. Select a phase (Optional): This can be customized in your system settings.
    If you are learning lessons in a specific phase of your project life cycle, you can select it.
    If this is not selected, the product will automatically suggest a phase - this is great for when you are entering multiple lessons.
    ​

  3. Provide lesson context (Optional)
    If you have specific information that is not part of your project documentation, you can provide additional guidance.
    ​

  4. Upload supporting documents (Required)
    This is where you will attach the documentation that contains lessons to be extracted.
    ​

  5. Click Generate Lessons.
    ​

  6. Lessons will be processed in the background and appear in the pending tab when ready for your review.


Manual Entry

This is a great way to create lessons if you have specific information that you would like to provide and know exactly what your lesson is going to be with clarity.

    This is a way for somebody to quickly understand what your lesson is about
