The Belts feature displays content on the learner homepage in an organised, easy to navigate format. It guides users to multiple tasks and helps them quickly find specific content, such as events or mandatory training.

  • Access LMS Hub sites: Belts are created and managed by administrators.

  • Access LMS² sites: Belts are created and managed by super administrators.

Create a belt

To create a belt, watch the video or follow the below instructions.

  1. Switch to admin view.

  2. Click Engagement, then select Homepage Designer.

  3. Click Belts, then select Add new belt.

  4. Populate the Belt Label field, then click Add content.

  5. Search for and select the content to appear.

  6. If required, click Visibility and select the Teams or Users who can see the Belt.

  7. Click Confirm.

  8. Toggle on Spotlight for users.

  9. Click Save.

📌 Note: The Visibility tab lets you control who can see a belt. All-org belts can be restricted to Teams and Person Categories, while org-specific belts can also be restricted to individual learners.

For all-org belts, Super Admins will only be able to select Teams and Personal Categories that span across the entire organisation, rather than org-specific ones.


Content visibility in belts

Content appears in a belt when specific conditions are met. Use the list below to check if your content is set up as required.

  • The content is part of a published mandatory training belt.

  • The user has an active registration for the content.

  • The content is published to a catalogue that the user has access to.

  • The content is tagged with a mandatory training category.

  • The content is incomplete or expired.

  • The content has a certificate (optional).

  • The content belongs to a configured category group (optional).

📌Note: If all of the above conditions are met and the content is still not showing, please raise a support ticket.


Manage belts for multiple organisations

⚠️ Important: The below guidance is only applicable to super administrators on Access LMS² sites.

Super administrators on Access LMS² sites with multiple organisations can create belts specific to each organisation. Users within those organisations will only see the belts for the organisation they're in.

📌 Note: Note: Only super administrators with the all organisations reporting scope can do this. Super administrators with a reduced reporting scope can only manage their own organisation's belts.

To manage all organisation spotlights, follow the below steps.

  1. Switch to admin view.

  2. Click Engagement, then select Homepage Designer.

  3. Select the Belts tab, then search for and select the relevant organisation.

    • Select All Organisations to add belts for all organisations.
