Training Space

Answer

Do all Blueworks Live accounts have training spaces?

By default, the training feature is enabled in an account. The administrator can disable it on the "Customization" tab of "Administration Console":

Once you have enabled the training feature for your account:
  • A new Blueworks Live Training space is created. This is where users will go to launch tutorials and do the accompanying exercises
  • Individual training spaces are automatically created for users with "Editor" role the first time that they choose to access a tutorial. These individual Training space names are prefixed with the user’s name. These individual training spaces contain the training blueprints that are used in the tutorial exercises.
  • Users can then watch the tutorial videos and do the related exercises in their individual training spaces. They can view the tutorial videos alongside the training blueprints, and pause the video as they do the exercises.

How can I see that I am working in a training space?

If you see a blue icon "Open Tutorial" at the top line of your artifact, then you are working in a training space:

Do all users have their individual training space?

If the account admin has customized the account to "Enable the Training feature" and "When new Editors join the account, automatically present them with the Getting Started tutorial", each user gets a personal training space when he first logs in as an Editor. Users with other roles don't have personal training spaces.

Can I copy my training space to another account?

Training spaces can only be copied within the same account, not to a different account.

Can I use my personal training space just like any other space?

Training spaces are special spaces with some limitations. They should only be used for its stated purpose - training.

How to delete training spaces?

Training spaces can be archived, but not deleted.
