The Learning Event determines which dates the exam appears on in the student calendar and is a necessary step in creating an exam. Is does not determine the timeframe the exam is accessible to students for (see Creating an Exam Post).
Note: When adding a Learning Event to the UGME section, please make sure to consult Shaun Kevilovski, from the Vancouver Fraser Medical Program (shaun.kevilovski@ubc.ca) and Denis Zhelenkov from the Curriculum Management Support Unit (denis.zhelenkov@ubc.ca) who are both Educational Administrative Systems Support Analysts, before creating the event. They will make sure that everything is linked correctly to curriculum map, learning objectives etc.
Note 2: For PGME, although residents do not use the Calendar, it is still necessary for you to create a Learning Event.
- Navigate to Manage Events under Admin and create a new Learning Event if there is no pre-existing event for the exam.
- Click on Add New Event to creating the Learning Event.
- Choose your course under Select Course.
- Choose Assessment under Instructional Methods since you are setting up an exam.
- Under Event Details, make sure to fill in the information highlighted in the third and fourth screenshot below.
- Make sure you have selected Add Content to Event before clicking Save.
