Overview
As an employer, you can use the employer dashboard to easily view the progress of your direct reports who are in learning or, at a more senior level, learners that you have access to view. You can filter learners, view key metrics, find problem areas, and identify root causes. You can derive insights into the performance of learners across the organisation – you can drill down by brand, region, branch, sector, programme, or team.
The dashboard also highlights actions that are required for you to complete. For example, where you need to sign compliance documents or contribute towards progress reviews.
The Employer Dashboard is available to employers with the Learners Progress role.

Filtering
You can set filters to limit the view by programmes/ learners or any other available filters. The option to filter is available to you at all times, even within the drilldowns.
Quick Filters
You can use the two quick filters: Programmes and Groups to narrow down your dashboard/results.
Click the Programmes quick filter to set/reset the Programmes multi-select filter. This quick filter shows a list of all the programmes and sub-programmes that the learners in the dashboard are applied to. You can select one or more programmes from the list. To search for a specific programme, use the search bar at the top.
The 'Groups' Quick Filter allows for the selection of one or more groups.
Detailed Filters
Apart from the quick filters, you can use the Filters option to filter by additional criteria.
Click the Filters option on the top of your screen. A Filters pane is displayed on the right of your screen. Here, you can filter by Programme, Groups, Employer Groups, Status and Date.
The Programme, Groups and Status fields offer you a multi-select list. The options visible to you are limited by your role and access level. The Group and Employer Group filters, subject to group permissions, allow for the selection of multiple groups.
If you want to filter by the date, you will be prompted to choose one of three dates to filter by: Start date, Practical period date, or End date. After you select one, you must specify a date range,
Make your selections and click Done. The revised dashboard will be displayed.
Further improvements
The employer dashboard will continue to be developed over the coming months. In a future release, more cards on the dashboard will have drilldowns to enable you to have more detailed information, and an even better insight into the performance of your teams.
