Section
titleFind Answers to your Questions

The information provided in the Learning Center space allows to find answers to the following questions.

Section
titleWhich Training Courses are available?

Click on Training Courses.

Section
titleWhich Certificates are owned by Employees of this Company?

Click on Certificate Index.

Although this list would likely get out of hand for larger companies, since this list shows every certificate.

The stakeholder overview may also provide this information.

For a large number of employees this again may get unwieldy. A solution could be to provide individual Space Index pages for different groups of stakeholders.

Section
titleWhich Certificates does an Employee own?

This information can be found on the stakeholder's page.

Click Stakeholders for the list of stakeholders and then select the employee you need the information for (e.g. Ada Larissa Lovelace).

Section
titleWhich Certificates are relevant for an Employee?

It depends on the stakeholder's roles.

To find a role either go to Roles and select the role ...

... or select the role on a stakeholder's page.

Section
titleWhich Employees have a given Role?

Go to the role you are interested in (e.g. Software Developer). The information is found in the stakeholder's section.

For each table row the Roles column shows all roles of the stakeholder.

Section
titleWhich Courses are relevant for the Stakeholder and not yet attended?

The stakeholder page lists the the certificates earned by the stakeholder as well as training coursed relevant according to the stakeholder's roles.

Once Larissa gets excited on marketing stuff and there is assigned the role of a marketeer in addition to her current software developer role, then the new training courses are shown as relevant on her page.

Now we add a new column to show the training path the training belongs to.

Note Box

Due to the nature of pages, the new column is only shown on Larissa's stakeholder page. If this column is also relevant for other stakeholders, the column has to be added manually on each page.

The Table Merger Macro allows to merge both tables into one.

So instead of information in two tables:

the information is rendered in one table:

Section
titleSummary

This show case provides some insight into the mechanics of tools from the PDAC1. While many things can be accomplished without blueprints and blueprint wizards, employing blueprints makes everything clearly easier to use.

Especially adding certificates could be done much nicer. Without a blueprint copying a page, finding and changing the specific parts is error prone and cumbersome.

More convenience can be achieved by adding a Create from Template Macro on the stakeholder's page. This would start the certificate wizard that collects all relevant information and renders the certificate immediately after saving (without going to the editor).

Tip Box

If you are deciding to create a set of blueprints on your own, please have a look at our blueprint add-ons on Bitbucket.
