How you can use My Learning:

The My Learning platform lets you:

  • complete online courses, watch videos, review activities or read articles
  • see content that has been assigned to you, recommended for your role or for your topics of interest
  • see popular resources among your peers
  • search for any learning, by topic or type of learning, by using the search bar. Click on ‘Your topics’ to select the ones that are relevant for you – this will teach the platform to show relevant content just for you
  • book face-to-face sessions – all face-to-face or virtual sessions are hosted on an events calendar, which can also filter by day, week or topic
  • share learning resources (hosted in the platform or hosted externally, like videos or articles) with your peers by creating a playlist – and follow playlists created by your colleagues around your topics of interest
  • see all the internally provided learning you have completed during the year, as well as adding any learning you have completed externally, through your learning record
  • as a manager, see the training records of all your direct and indirect team members, assign training to them or recommend learning resources for them to review

My Learning also incorporates other learning hubs including: My Performance Hub, High Performing Teams Hub, LearnFest area, My Oracle Guidance and Continuous Improvement Hub.

How to complete a module on My Learning

Each of the modules have interactions. If all the interactions are not completed the module will not show as complete. To see what you've missed, select the progress bar at the top and a menu will appear showing which areas are left to complete. If you are still having issues, try using a different web browser as the modules often work better when using Chrome.
