Prescriptive Rules | Name | Prescriptive rules should be labeled as:
Unit / subunit would be the ones requesting the prescriptive rule. This allows administrators to see who to contact for questions about the rule. Examples:
|
Y | For rules specific to a specific audience type, using the same name would be appropriate. If the rule is being used to push out training, this is what appears as the source on the person’s learning plan, so the freeform text portion should allow a learner to understand the reason they subject to that rule and be able to seek correction if they feel that is in error. |
Description |
Free form entry Example: Automatically assigns required training to the COE-MSE-Ober Lab-Bard Hall audience type for safety training required in Bard Hall labs 350, 359, and 361. |
This should explain purpose of the prescriptive rule and what it is being used for, being fairly specific. Years from now someone may need to clean up / review these created rules and they will need information to do that. |
