Learnbook now has the ability to unlock course completion settings so that administrators can change their course completion criteria for any ongoing courses. This will mean that users who are in the process of completing a course from this point of time will now be bound to new course completion criteria to complete the course, but users who have already been marked completed will not be affected by these changes.
Step 1. Login as Administrator and select “Course Completion Restore” in the Learnbook Menu.
