  • First name.
  • Last name.
  • Email address.
  • Sequence of competencies assigned to the course:
    • The drop-down menu to select and award a competency grade for an individual student.
    • (This will continue for each subsequent competency assigned to the course, unless they are configured to be hidden).
  • The bulk award workflow in the bottom row:

The Competency Awarder report with the Report filters collapsed, the selected dates to show data for, the links to download as csv and xlsx, and the competency table. The competency table has one row per user and a final row for bulk awarding competencies. This table has columns for selecting users, three columns for user information, first name, last name, and email address. Then a column for each course competency. No users have been awarded competencies.
