To set up learning plans with auto-populated content, follow these steps:

Set up positional and/or organisational hierarchies.

Assign the required positions and organisations to users.

Set up a competency framework and link the competencies to courses.

Link the competencies to the positions and/or organisations you set up in step 1.

Create a learning plan template.

Change the advanced workflow settings to auto-populate competencies into learning plans (the Automatic assignment setting on the Competencies tab).

Create a set or dynamic audience.

Link the learning plan template to the audience.
