Configure Learning Content for Multiple Languages

- New Dayforce Learning -

In Dayforce Learning, you can configure courses and learning plans that are available in multiple languages to support both compliance requirements and learner preferences. Configuring multilingual content lets you group all of the language versions into a single course, which can help simplify administration and completion tracking.

Learners, managers, and administrators can use the language filter to find content for a specific language. And, when learners open a course or learning plan, they can see a list of all languages that the course is available in.

By default, learners are shown courses and learning plan content in their preferred language. If the content isn’t configured for their preferred language, learners see the content in the default language that was configured for the course or learning plan.

As an administrator, you can see the language that each learner completed the content in by hovering over the status in the course or learning plan insights report.  You can also see this information when you download the report.

Note: If existing courses have the same content in different languages, you can use an import to merge them into a single course. See Merge Courses That Are Available in Different Languages.

To configure a course or learning plan for multiple languages:

1. Go to Dayforce Learning and click the Admin tab.
2. In the Learning section of the side panel, click Courses or Learning plans.
3. Open an existing course or learning plan or create a new one. 
4. In the action menu, which is next to the Assign button, click Settings.
5. In the Languages section of the Settings dialog box, take one or more actions, as needed.

6. Actions you can take in the Languages section

   Action	What to Do
   Add the first language for the course or learning plan	Click Set language and then select the language for the course or learning plan content. The selected language is added to the Languages section and is labeled “Default.”
   Add more languages	Click Add new language and then select the other languages for the course or learning plan.
   Set a different default language	Click the action menu for the language that you want to use as the default, and then click Set as default. The default language is used when the learner’s preferred language isn’t available.
   Remove a language	Important: When you remove a language, all of the content for that language is permanently deleted for the course or learning plan. Click the action menu for the language that you want to remove, and then click Remove language. This option isn’t available for the default language. To remove the default language, you first have to set one of the other languages as the new default.
   Change a language	Click the action menu for the language that you want to update, click Change language, and then select a new language for the associated content.

6. Close the Settings dialog box. A language selector is shown next to the action menu with the languages that you configured.
7. Select a language to open the associated content editor and add or update content as needed. For more information about configuring content, see Create Courses or Create Learning Plans.
