πŸ“— Create a Curriculum – Part 2: Assigning Qualifications

Learn how to assign qualifications to topics using resource slots in XO Scheduler.

Updated over 3 months ago

🌟 Curriculums don’t reference specific instructors or devices. Instead, they use resource slots that are defined by qualifications. This allows XO Scheduler to assign the right qualified resource automatically when building schedules.

In this part, we’ll add qualifications to our B747 recurrent curriculum.
