A batch is a group of learners enrolled in the same course, each following a specific schedule. When you create a course, a batch is automatically generated for you, but you also have the option to create additional batches as needed. This flexibility helps organize learners based on their availability and learning preferences.

Depending on the learners' needs, you can create different types of batches, such as full-day, weekend, or after-office batches. You can even have up to 5 batches (or even more than that) in a single day. This ensures that there’s a suitable time for everyone to attend and progress in the course.

Through this guide, we will guide you on how you can create a batch for the course, along with different views and sections in a batch.

Let’s get started 🚀

The “Batches” section in the Online Learning Platform groups learners together to help manage courses and track progress easily. When you go to this section, you can see the batch you belong to, manage it, or join a new one. This makes it simple to find the right lessons and work with other learners in your group.

Step 1: Launch the learning platform’s web application, click on the “Login” button at the top-right corner of the interface, and enter your credentials to kick off.

Step 2: After a successful login, you will be redirected to the dashboard. Unwrap the "Course Delivery" category from the left sidebar and select "Batches" from the populated list.

Create a Session for the Batch

Creating a session for a batch in an online learning platform allows instructors to organize and schedule learning activities for a specific group of learners efficiently.

This helps improve coordination, enhances learner engagement, and makes it easier to track progress.
