-
Category - the category within our e-learning platform where the module will be shown
-
Name – the title of the module
-
Duration – it will be shown next to a module
-
Order in category – a simple sorting mechanism, where you can assign numbers 0-99 to each module, and the modules assigned with a lower number will be shown to the learners at the top of the list on our e-learning platform

Under which categories can I upload custom modules?
You can upload the modules to any SoSafe category or use the ”Additional Learning Modules“ category, where you can upload all custom modules. At this point it is not possible to create custom categories for upload.
How do I assign a module to a campaign?
Adding your Custom Modules works just like adding SoSafe’s lessons: simply select it while managing your courses under E-Learning / Course Management. This happens during the Lesson assignment step. Select Add lesson and then you can use the filter Custom modules. You can find more about creating courses in the article E-Learning course setup.
If your lesson does not show up, make sure you have added a translation of it for your current language in the Manager. See the next question for information about adding translations.
How can I manage translations of the same modules?
You can find detailed instructions on how to upload and manage translations here.
Can I change a category or other details to the module I already uploaded?
Yes. On the edit page for each module you can change the following details:
-
Category
-
Name
-
Duration that will be shown next to a module
-
Description
You cannot change the language category where the module was uploaded. If you need to do that, you must delete the module and upload it under the new language category.
How can I set up the order of custom modules within a category?
When uploading a module, you will see the option ”Order in category“. It is a simple sorting mechanism, where you can assign numbers 0-99 to each module, and the modules assigned with lower number will be shown to the learners at the top of the list on our e-learning platform.
Do learners get notified of the custom modules I add, and can they be reminded to complete them?
Your SoSafe representative can set up new module notifications or e-learning reminders for custom modules, in the same manner as it is done for SoSafe modules.
How does the reporting work for custom modules?
You will be able to see the same analytics as for any SoSafe module.
Will custom modules work with gamification?
Yes, they will. They will behave as any other SoSafe module. Learners will get 50 experience points for each custom module they complete, and based on those points, they will be awarded with badges.
Will custom modules be responsive?
In most cases, uploaded modules will not be responsive across screen sizes.
