New Feature: Course Prerequisites

New Feature: Course Prerequisites

We are excited to introduce a powerful new feature in Teachfloor: Course Prerequisites.

With this functionality, instructors can now set one or more courses as required steps before learners can access a new course. This allows you to structure your training into clear, guided learning paths and ensure that students are properly prepared before moving forward.

How it works

Setting up prerequisites is simple:

  • Go to your course settings.
  • Select one or more courses as prerequisites.
  • Learners must complete and finish these courses before they are able to start the current one.

Once configured, Teachfloor automatically manages access for learners. Those who have not yet completed the prerequisite courses will see them listed as requirements, and they will only be able to begin the new course once the earlier ones are finished.

Why it matters

The Course Prerequisites feature brings several important benefits for instructors and organizations:

  • Build structured learning paths: Guide learners step by step, ensuring they follow a logical sequence of courses.
  • Ensure mastery before progression: Students gain the necessary foundation before moving on to advanced content.
  • Improve learner outcomes: By controlling the order of learning, you help learners connect concepts and achieve deeper understanding.
  • Simplify program design: Whether you are running a multi-module training program, a bootcamp, or a certification track, prerequisites allow you to manage progression with ease.

Create complete learning paths

With prerequisites, instructors can now go beyond individual courses and create connected learning journeys. This means you can design structured programs where one course naturally leads to the next, forming a clear roadmap for learners to follow. From introductory modules to advanced certifications, you can ensure that students move through your curriculum in the right order and with the right preparation.

Available now

The Course Prerequisites feature is live and ready to use. Head to your course settings and start creating learning paths that guide learners from start to finish.
