Membership Cutoff Date: Use the Membership Cutoff Date to push training to students for a specified period of time. It is the absolute final date that SilkRoad Learning considers as a membership date, and any users who become members of the qualification after this date are ignored.

For example, let's say you want to push specific training for the fiscal year, which runs from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013. Students have to take the training before the cutoff date of December 31, 2013. You would select December 31, 2013 from the calendar pop-up. Any student that enrolls in the qualification after December 31, 2013, will not be considered members of the qualification and SilkRoad Learning will not calculate any certification status for any certifications within the qualification.

Jobs, Job Categories, Groups, Organizations: Qualifications can be applied to students based on their membership in a Job, Group, Job Category, or Organizational Unit or to individual students. The Membership Inclusion lists act as filters when more than one method is used to apply the qualification to a user. When multiple items in each of Job, Job Categories, Groups or Organizations are used, only those users who belong to at least one of each of the Membership Inclusion methods receive the qualification. For example, a qualification applied to the Jobs Mechanic and Plumber; and the Job Categories Apprentice and Journeyman would be pushed to users ONLY IF they matched at least ONE of the following combinations: Mechanic Apprentice, Mechanic Journeyman, Plumber Apprentice, or Plumber Journeyman.
