Learning Paths

Entity summary

Name	data_object	Description
Curricula	curricula	Grouped learning paths and courses targeting a role, function, or compliance scope.
Learning Path Assignments	learning_path_assignments	Assignments of a learning path to a learner, tracking overall path progress and completion percentage.
Learning Path Steps	learning_path_steps	Ordered steps inside a learning path, each pointing to a course, sub-path, or external resource with sequencing rules.
Learning Paths	learning_paths	Curated sequences of courses targeting a role, skill, or certification, driving ordered enrollment and progress tracking.
Learning Plans	learning_plans	Personalized learning plans composed of multiple paths or courses, often manager-curated or recommended against skill gaps.
Learning Recommendations	learning_recommendations	Per-learner content suggestions generated from skill gaps and the learner's role profile.
Prerequisite Rules	prerequisite_rules	Gating rules that control learning-path progression, requiring completions, scores, certifications, or competencies before the next step.
Skill Targets	skill_targets	Learning-path steps, each binding a skill to a target proficiency threshold to reach.
Certifications	learner_certifications	Credentials issued to a worker (internal, vendor, or regulatory), with issue date, expiry, issuing body, and renewal rules. Drives recertification campaigns.
Course Enrollments	course_enrollments	Per-learner per-course records tracking assigned and due dates, attempts, status, and score.
Employees	employees	Canonical records of people currently or formerly employed, carrying identity, employment metadata, and links to position, manager, and org unit.
Job Profiles	job_profiles	Canonical role definitions in the job catalog: title, family, level, responsibilities, required skills, pay range, and FLSA class. Many positions share one profile.
Org Units	org_units	Nodes in the organizational hierarchy such as divisions, departments, and teams, with manager, cost center alignment, geographic scope, and parent-child links.
Positions	hcm_positions	Approved org slots with role definition, cost center, reporting line, location, and FTE allocation. Each can be open, filled, or eliminated.
Performance Goals	performance_goals	Individual performance goals with owner, period, metric, weight, and status, aligned to organizational objectives and reviewed within performance cycles.
Skill Profiles	skill_profiles	Per-worker collections of skills with self-assessed and validated proficiency, derived from courses, certifications, and performance signals.
Skills Gap Analyses	skills_gap_analyses	Comparisons of current skills inventory against future demand by role, level, and location, guiding build, buy, or borrow decisions.
