Acknowledgment as Activity in Course

Acknowledgement is a unique activity type in Worksy LMS module. It is usually placed at the start of a course so that learners confirm they have read and understood the information before continuing with the rest of the course content.

With Acknowledgement, you can:

• Write and format content to inform learners about important notices.
• Upload an attachment (only PDF files are supported).
• Control whether learners can download the uploaded attachment.
• Add agreement details (mandatory).
• Optionally require learners to type their first and last name or to provide a signature.
