We are needing to create mandatory training which requires staff to spend 1 hour on. I know we can set timing to each slide but do we have the ability to set a required time a user has to spend in a course before it will show complete?
You could create a timer that counts down and use that to trigger completion when it reaches 0.
But do you know what will happen? People will just leave the window open until the timer runs down and then close it. They aren't going to magically learn more because you made them spend an hour with that course open. You'll just annoy them.
And annoyed people tend not to learn very much...
I'd recommend talking with whoever decided that staff have to spend an hour in the training about better ways that you can help ensure they learn the content.
If you need ideas on better ways to approach this, see here.
You are right, they will not magically learn more by spending more time in the training. Unfortunately its mandatory with a required time to be spent in the course.
