Create custom dashboards
Overview
Dashboard templates give clients a jumping off point to create their own custom dashboard. Each of these templates is based on best practices and recommendations from our consulting team and represents either a persona or a use case.
Available templates:
By persona: Conference, Course Owner, Executive, Instructor, Instructor Manager, L&D / Operations.
By use case: ILT vs Online Training.
After creating the dashboard, clients can delete, add and modify the widgets to suit their own needs.
Only dashboard users with dashboard management permissions can create new dashboards from an MTM template.
