Collection analytics

Open Insights on the collection to see how many people viewed it, how many started and how many completed the whole thing, where learners drop off from one course to the next, and a per-learner breakdown. You can download the data as a CSV.

A collection groups several courses into one learning path. Collection analytics show you how people move through that path as a whole, not just one course at a time. You read this through Insights on the collection.

Open Insights for a collection

  1. Select Collections from the navigation menu on the left of your workspace.
  2. Find the collection you want to analyse.
  3. Click the Insights button next to the collection's title.
  4. The Insights window opens on the Collection summary. Set the date range at the top (for example last 7 days, last 30 days, last 3 months, all time, or a custom range) and the metrics update to match.

What you can see

  • Collection summary. The headline numbers for your date range: how many people viewed the collection, how many started it (opened at least one course), and how many completed it (finished every course in the collection).
  • Progression funnel. How learners move from one course to the next through the path, so you can see which course is where people drop off, rather than where they stall inside a single course.
  • Individual usage. A list of learners. Expand a person to see what they've started and completed, the total time they've spent, and their progress through the collection.

Reading the results

The gap between started and completed tells you how many people are making it all the way through the path. If that gap is large, use the progression funnel to find which course in the sequence is losing people, then look at that course on its own to understand why. Reordering courses, shortening content or adding interactivity at the drop-off point can all help.

Download the data

You can download the collection's data for the selected date range as a CSV from the Insights pane, so you can keep your own records or work with it elsewhere.

Collection analytics in your own product (Embed)

If you deliver a collection through Embed, you can show the same kind of data inside your product. There's a read-only Collection Analytics component you can embed for a specific collection, and you can pull the underlying numbers through the tracking API to build your own dashboards.

Frequently asked questions

What does "completed" mean for a collection?

A learner has completed the collection when they've finished every course in it. Someone who's done some but not all courses counts as started, not completed.

How is this different from course analytics?

Course analytics show drop-off screen by screen within one course. Collection analytics show drop-off course by course across the whole path, plus each learner's progress through the collection.

Can I export the data?

Yes. Download a CSV from the Insights pane for the date range you've selected.

Can I see this inside my own product?

Yes, with Embed. Use the read-only Collection Analytics component for a specific collection, or pull the data through the tracking API.
