Create a Bridge Course for IT Essentials & Intro to Networks for CCST Networking
I'd like to suggest that Cisco create a bridging course for teachers who teach IT Essentials & Intro to Networks. This course would have the additional material that is not covered in these 2 courses.

Marking incorrect questions and answers
I would like to be able to mark inaccurate questions and answers. With the marking of the questions and answers, I would like to have an ability to provide a correct reference as well as the ability to remove them from any test they appear on until they are corrected.

Thank you for posting to Share Idea. We are unable to allow these types of changes in the exams at this time.

Send emails to certain academy groups
it would be usefull the option of being able to send a message to certain user groups.
For example: if I need to contact or broadcast a message to every instructors of the academy. Or a message only to students to spread certain information.1 voteThanks for your suggestion. In the current platform, instructor to student messaging is available within a class. Other messaging needs should be done outside of the platform now, bu we will consider for future implementation.

recurring non-periodic similar events
Assessments usually are recurring non-periodic similar events that share the name and also the notes and places. It is quite nice that we can introduce several dates at the same time when we are creating an event.
1 voteThanks for your suggestion. We will not be able to implement your idea at this time but will keep for future consideration.

Calender icon too limited
When creating an event if we click on the calender icon we can just select a date within the current month. Does not make sense.

Thank you for the suggestion. You are correct you can not select dates from 2 different months in the calendar. If you change the calendar month first, you can select a date from a second month. We will keep this in mind for future releases to see if we can make improvements.

improve appearience
Reduce or hide the header and or the bottom background while reading the content.
(I'm seeing the content in a laptop with 1366x768 resolution)
- There is a big header mentioning the chapter title.
- And a section in the bottom to see next chapter or exam.

Thank you for posting to Share Idea. We recommend trying the new Python courses in the Skills for All site. The layout of the curriculum is different than Cisco NetAcad.

Thank you for posting to Share Idea. Individuals can graduate students from the Course Completion page. This link is in the Grades section of your course. I recommend reviewing the FAQs for more information. Instructors and Facilitators can graduate students.

Student Accommodations
I may have missed this, but we are required to allow students certain accommodations in class. (Professors: The accommodations outlined are not optional and must be provided under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Section 504; and the Americans with Disabilities Act.) This is usually in the way of additional time on exams. Time-and-a-half or double-time are the most common.
I cannot find any way to do this in NetAcad.
There should be a way to allow this per student, which applies to all exams in a course.

Instructors have the ability to change the length of time a student has to take an assessment by using the Advanced Activation feature. You can also create an activation profile to set up an exam duration.

Let students colaborate on modul exams
One of my accemeies suggest making an option on module exams so it does NOT randomize questions.
This way students can do the module exam in small groups, to motivate them to discuss and describe their understanding to each other. They learn and remember a lot from these discussions.1 voteArchived ·AdminSandra Ray

Thank you for posting to Share Idea. Instructors have the ability to turn off the randomized question setting when they use Advanced Activation mode. You can also do this in the Instructor Activation Profile.

Allowing over 100% results for students
You should enable over 100% scores in gradebook since adding extra assignments means manual calculation. This feature is available in Moodle but currently disabled.
