Overview
IQAs can add planned sampling activities for an individual learner using Single‑Mode. This allows you to schedule sampling for a specific unit, select assessment methods to be sampled, and generate task reminders for upcoming activity.
User Roles
This feature can be used by:

Single‑Mode
Single‑Mode allows you to apply your sampling plan to one learner and one unit at a time.
