An Active Learner is where the ‘Is Active’ status is ‘Yes’.

A Learner must be Active in order to allow activity. Therefore, by default, when a Learner is added to Tuple, they will be deemed Active. You can later mark a Learner as Inactive if required. This can be done at any time based on your policies once you have finished with the Learner.

IMPORTANT NOTES! Marking a Learner as Inactive does NOT delete the Learner from Tuple.

What does Inactive means?

Marking a Learner as Inactive simply means that your organisation will not be billed for any Inactive Learner from the following billing month and onwards.

An Inactive Learner can be reactivated if required. We highly recommend as a good practice to monitor your Learners activities, before the end of the month, so you can better manage Active and Inactive Learners. By doing so, it helps your organisation to not be unnecessarily billed for a Learner that did not have any activities for that month but was not marked as Inactive.

Reasons to change Learner to Inactive include:

  • You have per Active Learner pricing with Tuple

    • We highly recommend that you familiarise yourself with how Active Learner pricing is billed

  • You are an Enterprise Training Organisation or L&D Department and have ex-staff

  • International College where a Learner has been deported

  • Learners that you have dismissed over a grievance or other reasons

  • Deceased Learners

IMPORTANT NOTES: When a Learner is Inactive you will not be able to complete edit actions on the Learner or any linked record. You will only be able to view information relating to the Learner.

  • You can still download documents and credentials

  • You can view the records in Exports

  • If however you need to edit anything on the Learner you will need to set the Learner back to Active
