How do I deactivate or Activate my learner?

Written by Simran Phulwani

Definitions

  • Active user – Currently engaging in a NexTech curriculum (for example, working through Tech Builder).​
    ​

  • Inactive user – Not engaged in learning; typically someone who has completed their curriculum or stopped training early and no longer needs access.​
    ​


Responsibilities for Training Leaders

  • Maintain an accurate status for every learner profile in your company.

  • Ensure learners who are actively training are marked Active, and those who are done or paused are marked Inactive.​

  • Understand that user status controls both platform access and billing (Active users are what drives Tech Builder monthly invoices).​


Steps: Updating a Learner’s Status

1. Open the Users report

  1. Log into the Training Leader portal.

  2. Navigate to your Users report.
    ​

  3. Note: The report defaults to only Active users, so inactive people will not show until you adjust filters/columns.​

2. Add the Status column (if needed)

  1. At the top‑left of the report, click the column chooser icon (small checklist icon).​
    ​

  2. In the list of available columns, find and enable Status so it appears in the report.
    ​

    ​

3. Filter to find inactive users (optional)

  1. In the Status column header, click the filter icon.​

  2. Choose Inactive to show only inactive user profiles, or adjust as needed to locate a specific learner.​
    ​

4. Edit a learner’s profile status

  1. Locate the learner you want to update.

  2. Check the box next to their name.​

  3. On the right‑hand margin, click Edit user

  4. In the user’s profile window, find the “Is Active” field under General Information.​
    ​

  5. Toggle the field to the correct setting:

    • On / Active – learner is currently training.

    • Off / Inactive – learner has completed or paused and should no longer have access.

  6. Click Save to apply the change. Do not close the window without saving.​


Billing impact (overview)

  • Tech Builder invoices monthly for Active users only.​

  • Keeping statuses accurate ensures:

    • Learners who are done do not continue to be billed.

    • Active learners retain proper access to their curriculum.
