ADM – ST – Course Progress Overview

In this lesson, you will learn how course progress is calculated in TEAMS and how subject date setup directly impacts progress percentages, warnings, and compliance.

Key points covered include:

• Why accurate subject dates matter
  Course progress percentages are calculated based on subject start and end dates. If these dates are incorrect or changed mid-study, progress percentages can drop and previously issued warnings may no longer be valid, creating a compliance risk.

• Preferred method: program-level subject structure
  The most reliable way to manage subject dates is by setting up subjects at the program level with:

  • Correct sequence numbers

  • Defined study durations
    This allows TEAMS to automatically calculate subject dates across the enrolment.

• Using Group Training Plans (GTPs)
  Subject dates can also be assigned through Group Training Plans, where program subjects are linked to specific intake schedules. This requires:

  • Separate training plans for each intake and year

  • Ongoing maintenance to ensure accuracy

• Direct enrolment date copying (not recommended)
  Copying enrolment start and end dates directly into all subjects is not a best practice. Students do not start and finish all subjects on the same dates, and subjects should not all end in the final study period.

• Compliance best practices

  • Finalise enrolment and subject dates before the course commences

  • Avoid making changes mid-study period

  • Never shorten subject end dates after warnings have been issued

  • Always maintain an audit trail of any changes

  • Do not rely on copied enrolment dates for progress calculations

Following these practices helps protect student outcomes and ensures your organisation remains compliant.

IMPORTANT: At the end of this lesson, you will then need to complete the quiz for it before moving on to the next Lesson.
