Notifications set up for future dates are processed every night at midnight. On the set date,
depending on the number of notifications in the queue, they are sent within a few minutes or a
few hours after midnight PST. In most cases, enrollees receive their notifications by the time
they arrive for work in the morning.
Notifications appear to be sent from whomever creates the course, using the e-mail specified in
their Breeze account. Any e-mail delivery failure notifications are sent to this address.
All e-mail notifications are sent individually. Recipients do not see the list of other recipients in
the message header.
Step 6: Setting up reminders
The sixth step in the Course Wizard is to set up course reminders. A course reminder is an e-mail
sent to selected course enrollees reminding them that they need to take or pass a course. When
you set up a course reminder e-mail, you set the reminder timing (when the e-mail is sent to
enrollees and how often), the reminder recipients (send to all enrollees, those who have not taken
the course yet, those who failed the course, or custom recipients), and the e-mail subject and
message. You can use runtime fields in the subject line and in the body of the message. The
runtime fields are course information variables that are automatically filled in for you when the
e-mail is sent.
Note: You can change the course reminders any time after the course is created. For more
information, see "Changing settings for course reminders" on page
