Pathways are dynamic, structured learning journeys guiding users through a curated sequence of content and activities. Functioning as a clear, progressive roadmap, a pathway enables learners to achieve specific outcomes, fulfil compliance, and systematically develop new skills and competencies. Pathways incorporate various content types, assessments, and interactive tasks, which fosters a comprehensive and measurable approach to professional development.
By following a pathway, individuals gain a personalised, engaging experience, easily tracking their progress toward a larger objective. Pathways incorporate various content types, assessments, and interactive tasks (fostering a comprehensive, measurable approach to development) and support diverse global teams through manual translation of titles and descriptions in Thrive.
Note:
Pathways that do not contain content modules are not displayed to users or included in search results, as content is required to complete the learning journey. A content item can only appear once in a single pathway. However, the same content can be reused across multiple different pathways.
Creating a Pathway
In the Thrive menu, go to Create > Pathway.
Provide a title and description for your pathway.
In the Define your path section, add content and optional tasks:
Click + Add Another Section.
Within the section, click + Add Content.
Use the search bar to find and select the content you wish to include.
Click ADD SELECTED.
If the attached content requires learners to provide evidence or manager approval for completion, click + Add task, then select the relevant checkbox(es), and click Add task.
Repeat steps a-e as needed to add more sections and content to your pathway.
Click Post.
Your pathway is now created, containing the attached content. If you created sections, they will appear organised on the left side of the pathway.
Updating and Re-Completion
When a new content module is added to a Pathway, Thrive tracks these changes by immediately modifying the user's completion percentage in the relevant Pathway. This percentage drops below 100% to reflect the newly introduced, uncompleted items. The original "Complete" status is maintained to preserve the user's initial achievement record, as Pathways are based on the time of assignment and their completion timeline.
While the status remains "Complete," the percentage tracking allows administrators to identify users who have completed the bulk of the content but are partially complete due to the update. A user can generate a new completion record by finishing the new content five months after their previous completion.
