Pluralsight navigation

This article shows you how to navigate the Pluralsight Skills features available to you. If you can’t see a feature discussed in this article, it may be because the feature is not available to your plan or your role within your plan.

This article gives a general overview of features found in the navigation panels. Please see the linked articles for in-depth discussions of how these features work.

Note: This article discusses navigation when accessing Pluralsight through a web browser. Navigation and the available features may vary when using a mobile or desktop app.


Top navigation

The top navigation panel is available to all Pluralsight users regardless of your plan or your role.

The search bar is available to all Pluralsight users. The content visible to you in the search results depends on your plan.

Iris

Iris is Pluralsight’s AI assistant. If the Iris button doesn’t appear on your top navigation, your team plan has decided not to enable it.

Notifications

If you follow certain authors or subjects or if you download reports, you’ll find links to them in Notifications. A red badge over the notifications icon tells you there’s a new message waiting for you.

Help

Help offers quick access to valuable resources, including the Help Center, How-to videos, the Admin Success Center, and the Pluralsight blog. If you can’t find what you need there, click Send Feedback to contact Support.

Profile menu

The Profile menu—accessed by clicking your avatar—provides easy access to your Profile page, Account settings, History, Trophy case, Bookmarks, and the Sign out button. If you have a team plan, you can manage your plan settings on the Account page.


Learner navigation

Learner navigation is available to all Pluralsight users regardless of your plan or your role. The features visible to you within learner navigation depend on your plan.

The side navigation panel appears on the left-hand side of the browser window. If you’re a plan admin or team manager, you can click the caret to toggle between learner navigation and leader navigation.

Home

Home shows recommended course content based on your activity and interests, as well as Skill IQ assessments you’ve taken and channels you’ve joined or created. If you’re on a team plan, it might include company priorities and selected channels. Depending on your plan, you may also see Tech Foundations.

Browse all

Suggested content is tailored to your interests and learning history on Pluralsight. The content visible to you in Browse all depends on your plan.

Channels

Content can be organized into channels. On the channels page, you’ll find channels you’ve created, been invited to, and ones shared to your entire team plan. You’ll also find priorities if your team plan has enabled them.

Certifications

Certifications takes you to the Certification prep center, allowing learners to explore and prepare to sit industry certification exams with paths, courses, and practice exams.

Paths

Paths are Pluralsight-curated collections of content and resources on a specific topic. Paths takes you to the paths page, where you can explore different topics and areas of interest.

Skill IQ

A Skill IQ assessment is a norm-referenced or comparative assessment for specific tech topics. Skill IQ lets you discover new assessments, retake assessments you’ve previously attempted, and revisit topics you may want to continue studying.

Role IQ

Role IQ helps you understand skills important to your role using Skill IQ assessments. The Role IQ page lets you explore different roles as well as see roles that may have been assigned to you by your leaders.

Hands-on

The Hands-on page shows you the sandboxes and labs included in your plan and permitted by your admin if you’re on a team plan. See Labs overview for more information.


Leader navigation

Leader navigation is available to plan admins and team managers on team plans. The features visible to you within leader navigation depend on your plan and your role.

The side navigation panel appears on the left-hand side of the browser window. If you’re a plan admin or team manager, you can click the caret to toggle between leader navigation and learner navigation.

Leader hub

The Leader hub provides quick access to onboarding, license management, learning insights, and report automation. Many of your most-used leader tools appear here, with links to other useful tools to help you dive deeper.

People

The People page allows you to manage your plan’s users, including learners, team managers, and plan admins. It also allows you to organize and manage teams, assign and revoke licenses, and manage select plan-level settings.

Analytics

Analytics offers you robust data into how your team is benefitting from Pluralsight. Use this data to identify vulnerabilities and inform your strategies on skilling up key teams on essential technologies.

Account

The Account page allows plan admins to view basic plan information, manage billing and payment, upgrade your plan, and find your Pluralsight contact. To manage your account or see your profile, visit the Profile page.

Log

The Log shows you when and by whom various account management tasks occurred, including:

  • Sending plan invites
  • Changing user permissions and roles
  • Adding, editing, and removing users
  • Adding, editing, and removing teams
  • Assigning and revoking licenses
  • Adding or reducing license count

Priorities

Priorities are a way for leaders to organize one or more channel groups to allow their learners to focus on what matters most for their organizations goals and objectives.

Role IQ Builder

In Role IQ Builder, leaders can create and assign Role IQs to their learners. Role IQs can be customized using an existing Role IQ as a template or can be built from scratch.

Custom Sandboxes

If you’re on a team plan with custom cloud sandboxes, your organization can customize cloud environments to reflect your team’s real-life setup and assign these sandboxes to you in the Hands-on Playground.

Tech Foundations

Tech Foundations is a Pluralsight-curated experience that provides learners with an understanding of important tech topics.

Learning features

Some of the most used features from the learner navigation are repeated at the bottom of leader navigation, making it easy to access them without toggling the navigation panel. See Learner navigation (above) for a discussion of these features.
