How to Clone a Class in SimpliTrain
Cloning a class in SimpliTrain is a quick and efficient way to create a duplicate class while retaining the original class’s settings. This feature allows organizations to save time by replicating an existing class instead of starting from scratch.
Methods to Clone a Class
SimpliTrain provides two methods to clone a class:
- Cloning from the Class Detail Page
- Navigate to class details page.
- Click on the Clone Event button.
- A new class is instantly created as a duplicate of the original.
- Note: While most details from the original class are copied, the session times will not be duplicated.
- Review the new class’s details, make any necessary adjustments, and save the class.
- Cloning from the Clone Event Page
- Go to Admin > Training Management > Delivery > Classes and select “Clone Events“.
- A search popup will appear. Search for and select the class you wish to clone.
- Specify the number of days after the original class ends that the new class should begin.
- Click on the Clone Event button.
- A duplicate class will be created, scheduled to start based on the specified days.
Key Points to Note
- Retained Details: The new class will inherit most attributes from the original, such as the course, instructor, and other settings.
- Session Times: Session times from the original class will not be carried over and must be manually configured for the cloned class.
- Custom Adjustments: After cloning, review and update any details as needed to suit the new class requirements.
By using the cloning feature in SimpliTrain, organizations can efficiently replicate classes with minimal effort, ensuring consistency and reducing administrative workload.
