Assignments
An assignment creates a link between events and programmes or between events and programme groups. Assignments are used to link and manage events with programmes or programme groups. This involves defining criteria that are required for the successful completion of a course within a programme or programme group, as well as metadata to support the management of such courses. Assignments make it possible to monitor the progress of students, see Managing programme participants.
