In this article, we'll show how to create an Instructor-led Lesson. You'll need an Instructor-led Lesson for any in-person or online training in Learn LMS. An Event can then be created for every instance that the training takes place. As with any Lesson in Learn, Instructor-led Lessons:
- Can be assigned to one or more Courses
- If completed by a User, will show as complete for all Courses to which it is assigned

Steps to create an Instructor-led Lesson
- Navigate to the Lesson area of Learn admin
- Select 'New' to create a New Lesson:
- Choose the type 'Instructor-led (this cannot be changed after the Lesson is created):
- Enter a unique Code for the Lesson
- Enter a Title for the Lesson
- Add an optional image. If no image is selected, the Lesson will inherit the image assigned to any Course to which the Lesson is assigned
- Add a description for the Lesson. Take care to consider how this will appear alongside the description for any Course to which it is assigned. View '3 tips for Course and Lesson descriptions' for more detail
- Add a Lesson duration in minutes. Learners will see a total for all Lesson durations on the Course details
- Select 'Submit' to create the Instructor-led Lesson
What next?
Your next step will be to Create an Event. Events detail the time and place where the learning will be delivered. For learning that happens regularly, for example, induction training, multiple Events can be created for a Lesson.
When that's all set up, you're ready to share the learning with your people. Assign the Lesson to a Course then:
- To make the Course mandatory, assign the Course to one or more Groups
- To make the Course optional, assign the Course to a Catalogue, then assign the Catalogue to one or more Groups
