Goal Category - Admin Guide

GOAL CATEGORY

Overview

The purpose of this manual is to guide administrator(s) on how to effectively use the Goal Category Feature.

The Goal Category is a subset of the Goal Management Module which is part of the Talent Management Suite (TMS) of modules which extend the functionality of the existing Learnsoft Learning Management System (LMS).

The Goal Category allows the Administrator to set up specific categories of goals which helps in Goal setting, organizing and reporting functions.

For further information, see documentation associated with the Goal Management Module.
