The What's Next Tile is a tile on the Learner Dashboard that directs Learners to their next training. It helps Learners find relevant training quickly, and supports continued engagement with assigned and recommended learning. This tile is only available for Private Dashboards, as the data displayed is specific to each Learner and requires a signed-in Learner to generate tailored recommendations.

A new What's Next Tile can be added by an Administrator through the Admin Experience. The steps below explain how to add a What's Next Tile to your Learner Dashboard.

Tile Considerations

The following considerations apply to the What's Next Tile:

• You must be a System Admin to access the Manage Templates menu.
• We recommend using the Tall Container feature for the What's Next Tile. When enabled, the row of tiles appears at twice its natural height. The What's Next Tile is intended to be used with at least one other tall tile, such as Collaborations Activity or Latest News.
  
• The What's Next Tile displays up to 12 courses. It can display up to 3 featured courses and up to 3 recommended courses, depending on options enabled for the tile. It can also display up to 6 enrolled courses, such as Mandatory Courses, courses expiring soon, and courses due soon.
• The tile displays courses according to the priority rules described in the Course Display Order section.
