Learning Path

A learning path (or learning journey) is a structured, sequenced series of courses, activities and assessments designed to take a learner from their current level to a defined goal or competency. Rather than offering disconnected courses, a learning path orders content logically — often with prerequisites, milestones and branching based on role or skill level — so progress is guided and cumulative. Learning paths are widely used for onboarding, role-based training, certification tracks and structured upskilling, and platforms can personalise them to each learner. In an LMS, completion tracking and 'restrict access' rules turn a collection of courses into a coherent, goal-driven path.
