Course name

This field displays the name of the selected course.

Use the dropdown field to change the recurring course selection.

Minimum time required

This value indicates a minimum amount of time that a user might realistically need to be able to complete the selected course. It is used to determine if the completion period set on the assignments tab is realistic for a particular group of users. If the assignment is not realistic, a time allowance exception will be generated and the user will not be assigned to the program until the exception has been resolved.

Setting this does not mean the user only has a certain amount of time to complete the selected course, nor does it set or affect the program due date.

This does not determine the maximum time allowed to complete the course and setting this does not set a due date.

It is used to generate exceptions when a completion date set in the Assignments tab is insufficient and is used to automatically set a sufficiently generous due date when resolving time allowance exceptions using the Set realistic time allowance action.

Recurrence

Recurrence defines the time period in which the recurring course must be repeated. Recurrence can be specified by any number of days, weeks or months.

-

Course creation

Course creation defines when the course should be copied and recreated. It relies on the start and end date specified in the course settings.
