Totara training with Enovation

Learn how to confidently manage, configure, and optimise your Totara platform.

Totara training overview

At Enovation, we provide bespoke Totara training for clients who need to manage and deliver learning through Totara Learn. The training content and delivery style is tailored to suit the client’s existing LMS knowledge (Totara, Moodle, or general), the features they intend to use, and their organisational learning goals.

Online or face-to-face
Training can be delivered online or face-to-face, with small groups (typically no more than five participants) to ensure active engagement. We use a hands-on, workshop-style format with focus on practical skills, allowing participants to build familiarity with system functionality and apply it to real scenarios.
Totara training courses range from introductory sessions to in-depth workshops on administration and course development.

Totara Academy online
Clients are encouraged to complement this training with relevant Totara Academy online modules.

Site Administrator training

Site Administrator Training is geared towards Totara administrators – key topics include:

  • User management
  • HR import
  • hierarchies
  • Roles and permissions
  • Audiences
  • System policies
  • Site settings
  • Report building
  • Dashboards
  • Certification management and much more

Course Creator training

Course creator training is aimed at staff responsible for designing and delivering learning content within Totara Learn. The training is highly interactive and encourages attendees to create their own courses promoting practical application.

Topics
Topics covered include course set-up and settings, adding resources and interactive activities, plus using seminar, programme and certification features.

Hands-on approach
This approach allows course creators to gain a practical understanding of how to structure and sequence learning pathways. By the end of the session, course creators will have a solid grasp of how to build and maintain engaging, learner-focused content.

"As someone deeply passionate about Moodle, it felt only natural to me to try and obtain the MAQ certification and deepen my Moodle skills! The MAQ is a well-structured program, and, as a Learning Designer, I could appreciate the thoughtful instructional design behind it. The program offers both theoretical knowledge and practical, hands-on opportunities, which were really helpful... the MAQ is designed for LMS admins who need to understand both technical infrastructure and pedagogical implications, bridging the gap between IT operations and educational delivery. I highly recommend it to any Moodle admin out there!"
