Workday Learning Manager Essentials


Elevate your skills and ignite your potential with Workday Learning. This web page is dedicated to essential information to empower and enrich your Workday Learning experience as a manager.

Getting Started with Learning

  • Learning Assignments vs Learning Enrollments

    Workday creates learning assignment records for learners based on various assignment mechanisms, both required and non-required:

    • Campaign
    • Learning Mass Enroll
    • Manager Enroll
    • Retraining

    Required assignments typically come with deadlines and tracking to ensure completion. Examples include mandatory compliance courses, role-specific training, or required certifications.

    A learner may have multiple learning assignment records but each learning assignment record will have one of these statuses:

    • Open
    • Completed
    • Automatically Waived
    • Manually Waived

    Workday creates learning enrollment records for learners based on various enrollment mechanisms:

    • Learning Mass Enroll
    • Manager Enroll
    • Learner Self-Enroll

    A learner may have multiple learning enrollment records but each learning enrollment record will have one of these statuses:

    • Not Started
    • In Progress
    • Completed

    If the learner was assigned or enrolled in the learning content as required, the learner will see the learning content listed on their 'Required for You' slider.

    If the learner was not assigned or enrolled in the learning content as required or self-enrolled in the learning content, the learner will see the learning content listed on their 'Continue Learning' slider.

    The actions needed to remove the assignment or enrollment may vary depending on how the assignment or enrollment was created in Workday Learning and will require contacting the course owner to resolve.
