This setting stops learners from skipping forward in a video during their **first watch**. It ensures learners view the entire video, promoting better engagement and supporting compliance. ### When does it apply? - ✅ Applies **only to assigned learning** (e.g. training plans, compliance requirements) - ❌ Does **not apply to self-directed learning** (i.e. optional or user-initiated watching) - ✅ The restriction is active **only during the first viewing**—after that, learners can scrub through the video freely. --- ### How to enable or disable Prevent Skipping Ahead 1. Go to **Settings** in the Manager Portal by clicking the gear icon in the top right of the LMS ![](https://knowledge.organisations.ausmed.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-06-2025-04-21-04-2515-AM.png?width=670&height=35&name=image-png-Nov-06-2025-04-21-04-2515-AM.png) 2.
