Certificate download - primary or nominated instructor
The bulk download for certificates/letters is useful but if there are multiple instructors attached to a course it would be useful to have the old 'primary' instructor role as the signatory on the certificates, or alternatively allow the instructor requesting the certificates to nominate the instructor name to appear on the certificates.
At our institution the instructor downloading the certificates is often not the person who ran the classes and it doesn't make sense to have their name appear on the certificates.

enrolling multiple students at once - ability to browse list of list of student
Please make it possible to see a list of current existing students in our academy to select from when enrolling existing students. Much to tedious to search individually for each students and click "enroll" for each one.

Return the ability for Instructors to be able to view all their own current qualifications in their profile
The old website allowed Instructors (and students) to immediately view (and print-off) their qualifications as part of their online profile. This feature is used extensively for exemptions and RPLs at other institutions, and is difficult to access authoritatively in the Netspace system.
Please allow this as either built-in to our settings, or as an option button to 'view current qualifications' (etc.).

Set time duration for Batch Assignment settings
It is not possible to set the time duration for Batch exam assessments, i.e. the time allowed to sit the exam.
Two previous Ideas have requested this, but I believe have been misunderstood to mean the time limit in which to start the exam.
I want to change my exam duration to give a time limit of 45 minutes to complete a chapter test - 1 hour is too long!
Thanks,
Will4 votesHi,
I’m closing this to give your votes back, since this is now available in your Activation Profile. Thanks again for your patience.

Hi again, Will.
After further checking, you are asking for the Exam Duration—the amount of time allowed to take the exam once the student presses start. Currently, you can change the duration for a single exam, but not for multiple exams simultaneously.
I am putting your idea Under Review and hopefully this change will be implemented soon. I apologize for all of the confusion.Best,

Hi Will,
I just tried duplicating this and changed my Activation Profile to 45 minutes and Batch activated a couple of assessments. When I did this, my 45 minute limit showed on the Advanced Activation. Please let me know if this what you were looking for.
Thank you!

Easily transfer an entire class to another course
With lots of students it is a hassle to search and add every student to the next course, also downloading CSV and uploading in next course seems more or less stupid as it shouldn't need to be that hard.
I'd suggest the ability to select a class to search within in "Add Existing...". You could then list all students within a class and select "add all" or single students. This would make the progression from say CCNA 1 to CCNA 2 a lot less of a hassle.
Attached is a photoshopped example on how it could look
Or could be…

Instructor Course Completion
As an instructor "View Your Current Course Completion and Certification Status" (same function as in Academy Connection)
This function lists Course Name (CCNA Exploration) and Courses "Network fundamentals" etc and the passing score.
Certification and CCAI status should as well be included in the list.43 votesThanks for your suggestion, Robert! You can now view a list of courses that you are qualified to teach and requirements for others that you are not qualified to teach.

Access to resources needs to be improved
One of the nice things about Academy Connectoin was the ease of access to resources. If we could have a button link directly to the classes resources including SBA on the Class home page it would be helpful. The drop down and drill process that we need to use currently is painful to say the least.
163 votesThe links to the resources have been added to the ‘Instructor Home’ link from your course home page.
