Completion is tracked for you

Learners sign in to take the course, so every start, finish and score is recorded in AhaSlides. No spreadsheet to keep.

  • Who has finished

    See who has not started, who is in progress and who has completed the course.

  • Every score

    Each learner's answers to the quizzes and activities in the course.

  • What landed

    Survey results show what people took away, and the 30-day check-in shows whether they use it.
